CNN —Paul McCartney’s legendary lost guitar will gently weep no more as it was reunited with its owner more than 50 years after it was stolen. He continued to play it once The Beatles had split up but it was stolen in 1972 from the back of a van in Notting Hill, London. “The search for the bass wasn’t just for Paul McCartney, it was for all the fans,” Wass told CNN on Friday. “The evidence along the way would suggest that the thief didn’t know what he was stealing that night,” Scott Jones said. “In a sense it has no value except to Paul McCartney and to every Beatles fan in the world … it’s priceless.”

LONDON (AP) — Paul McCartney no longer gently weeps for his original bass guitar. “Paul said to me, ‘Hey, because you’re from Höfner, couldn’t you help find my bass?’” Wass said. The thief didn't set out to steal McCartney's instrument and panicked when he realized what he had, Jones said. Its estimated value is based on the fact that a Gibson acoustic guitar Kurt Cobain played on MTV Unplugged sold for $6 million (4.7 million pounds), Jones said. It’s a red alert because the minute you come forward someone’s going to go, 'That’s Paul McCartney's guitar.

Read previewCleveland Cavaliers big man Tristan Thompson has been suspended without pay from the NBA for 25 games. The two drugs found in Thompson's system — ibutamoren and LGD-4033 — can be used for performance enhancement purposes and may have dangerous side effects. Ken Blaze-USA TODAY SportsAccording to the NIH, ibutamoren is a growth hormone secretagogue, or a substance that promotes the production of growth hormones. Heightened growth hormone in one's system can increase muscle mass, limit body fat, and improve exercise tolerance, per Mayo Clinic. And in 2019, John Collins — then with the Atlanta Hawks — spent 25 games on the sidelines after the league found pralmorelin, another growth hormone secretagogue, in his system.

“This is the bass McCartney played … in Hamburg in 1961, at the Cavern in Liverpool and on those first Abbey Road recordings – it powered Beatlemania and shaped the sound of the modern world,” The Lost Bass Project said. All sorts of rumors have emerged about where the bass went and where it could be,” the group said. If you have credible information about the bass, this is your chance to share it and be part of music history,” it added. Heading the Höfner search project is Nick Wass, who worked closely with McCartney’s team and even wrote a book about the missing instrument. “The bass was in need of repairs and so it was sent to a firm in London, early in 1964, who carried these out.
