Honer BASS 3

via this auction

"It's a real rarity, made in 1964, according to an item on the web.

In fact, I've only found one decent web page with any information on it: WIKIZIC

It was made by HOHNER (the accordion people), but don't hold that against it, they also made the excellent STRINGER, and STRING Performer machines.

It's a monophonic 2.5 Octave bass synth, with three preset sounds: Guitar, String, and Tuba. Now, as I recall, only two of these work, but given the BASIC nature of these machines, it's probably a loose wire. Can't be sure, though, and I now have nothing to plug it into to test it.

It comes with the original flightcase, complete with orignal Bass3 sticker, and along with mains lead and plug."
