Paul Mcartney played and still does sometimes today, a Hofner violin bass. He has also used Rickenbacker basses during the Sgt. Pepper years,but i just saw a video of him on a English t.v. show from 2009, and he had the Hofner
He played the Bass Guitar. Incidentally, he was the only one that played left-handed, and still is.
He's most famous for his custom Hofner bass. He started to use that brand because it was cheaper to get a left hand version of a Hofner.
In 1957, John's mother Julia helped him purchas an acoustic Gallotone Champion guitar by mail order from South Africa to use in his group the Quarrymen.
