THE LOST BASS PROJECT HAS BEEN CLOSED

Hofner Limited Edition Fab Gear Revolution Beatle Bass 500/1-61-REV Model — Andy Babiuk's Fab Gear

Paul McCartney’s original bass guitar, which the legendary musician used in The Beatles’ early years, has been found
and returned after it was stolen more than five decades
ago (1972).

The 81-year-old singer-songwriter was reunited with the
left-handed Höfner 500/1 Violin Bass after its manufacturer
and a husband-and-wife team of journalists embarked on
a search for the missing instrument in 2018 that later
became a crowdsourcing campaign called The Lost
Bass Project.

A statement shared Wednesday on McCartney’s website confirmed that the guitar had been discovered and was 
returned to its original owner.
