Paul McCartney
Paul McCartney has played a Hofner Violin Bass since 1961
Of all the Hofner artists featured here, one stands out above the rest.
Paul McCartney has played a Hofner violin bass since 1961 when he purchased one whilst playing, with The Beatles, at the Top Ten Club in Hamburg, Germany. He is still playing a violin bass, a 1963 model that he has owned from new, and used on more recordings and played at more gigs than can be counted.
Paul continues to compose and to tour all over the world.
