What instrument did Paul McCartney play in the Beatles?

Answer 1

Sir Paul McCartney was the bass player in the Beatles, often played keyboards and he was one of the two main vocalists. He also dabbled and experimented with other instruments in some of their recordings. The majority of the popularity of the Beatles was created through the famous song writing-duo of John Lennon and Paul McCartney. Many musical critics and Beatles fans speculate that it will be a very long time before anyone of this musical talent appears. The video of McCartneys "Coming Up" shows his musical virtuosity, but he was principally the bass player. = Language conservatives be damned - Paul McCartney is a very talented musician. On some Beatles recordings, he played guitar, drums, piano, and a few other instruments. His main instrument, however, was the bass.

Also, to be more specific; on "Taxman", Paul played the Electric Guitar solo even though George Harrison was the guitarist. Paul tried to tell George how it should be done, and ended up playing it himself.

Answer 2

Paul McCartney played keyboards. The bass was actually played by John Lennon (his Fender Bass VI, which he also played on several Let It Be tracks).

Answer 3

Mostly Bass Guitar, but sometimes a piano. He played a Hofner brand fiddle bass.

Answer 4
