Hundreds of people have got in touch over the space of 24 hours to help find Sir Paul McCartney’s bass guitar after it went missing more than 50 years ago, appeal organisers have said.

The Lost Bass Project claims the instrument is “a national treasure” and a piece of “modern social cultural history” as the first bass bought by Sir Paul that was manufactured by Hofner.
