The Stadium "Beatles" Electric Bass is a copy of the Hofner model 500/1 bass, first manufactured in 1956. The original was popularized by Beatles musician, Paul McCartney. McCartney, who is left-handed, liked it for it's light weight, and symmetrical shape, which allowed it to be easily adapted for a left-hand player. This is a hollow-body, semi-acoustic instrument. The four strings are tuned E, A, D, G, like the four lower strings on a guitar, but playing an octave lower than the guitar. It has a warm, woody, double-bass-like amplified tone. Musicians love it for its' smooth, sweet sound, and ease of playing.
