Paul was the official bassist - his Hofner violin bass is a very iconic instrument. Occasionally George would play bass. Stu Sutcliffe was the original bassist, however, as Paul played rhythm guitar and even at one stage the drums for the band.

Paul McCartney, Although there are a few exceptions to this. He also played lead guitar for a few songs, and before The Beatles really got going and before Ringo Starr made his appearance he played drums for a short time.

Paul was the primary bass player for the Beatles; however he wasn't first; Stuart Sutcliffe was the original (and it has to be said, musically untalented) bass player. George and John also played bass occasionally - John played bass on the Let It Be track as Paul played piano.
