How to spot McCartney's bass
There are a couple of tell-tale signs any amateur sleuth should be aware of if trying to identify the bass.
A dead giveaway is the Höfner logo, which is written vertically on the headstock of the original model but was horizontal on later versions played by McCartney.
The missing bass also looked very different last time it was seen to how it did in older pictures, because it had to be renovated after extensive touring.
McCartney's missing bass was given a darker paint job, had the pearl pickguard removed and had the two pickups mounted in a single piece of black wood.

It is not clear what happened to the instrument, which was put away presumably after the Beatles finished filming Get Back in 1969, he said.
"It's not clear where it was stored, who might have been there.
It might have been Yoko...

Is there a statute of limitations on theft in the UK? Fifty years on whoever nicked it might be able to just ‘ fess up.
