The USA Hofner custom shop process:  The custom shop starts with an unfinished hand crafted German built body and neck as well as German components.  They ship all components to the USA Hofner custom shop where a single Luthier is dedicated to all aspects of construction.  The custom shop will add options like side dot markers then finish the bass in the custom color of your choice then finish the bass in nitrocellulose lacquer.  Hardware is then added and you can even request cavern spacing and diamond logo pickups (an additional fee is required for pickups).   Hofner custom shop instruments have a full Hofner warranty, custom shop serial number and factory Hofner case.
