Hofner Question - Chinese model

Jan 12, 2017

Hey folks - I’ve owned this bass for 5 years, got it used in mint condition from Guitar Center on line. It has the original Hofner tag/pamphlet from wherever the original owner purchased it (pictured) - any idea what the HI BB "SB Upgrade" designation as the Model means vs the head stock and neck plate (B Bass Hi Series) markings which do not show that? I guess I really do not know what model I have lol, plus is there anyway to find out the approximate year?
Thanks a lot,
Lou
