When he moved from piano to bass, after Stu Sutcliffe left The Beatles in 1961, McCartney bought his first Hofner Violin Bass, a 1961 model for $45 dollars in Hamburg. He used this bass exclusively until Hofner gave him a brand new model in 1963. The 1961 model was refurbished and kept as a back-up for his new bass. It remained with McCartney until being stolen from Abbey Road in the late 60's.There have, of course, been countless re-issues and replicas of the McCartney Hofner 500/1 Violin Bass over the years, and keenly priced examples are relatively easy to find, if you fancy a bit of that Beatles vibe.
