Richard Hell's Bass Guitars
Hell can be seen in this photo with a Fender Mustang Bass.
He used it at CBGB's in the movie Blank Generation. Seems to have been his main bass during the time of the first record.
Richard Hell uses a Danelectro DC Cooper Bass, as shown in a user-uploaded photo on Twimg.
On the cover of a live album of Hell-era Heartbreakers ‘What Goes Around’ recorded on July 7, 1975 and November 16, 1975 that was issued after the death of co-frontman Johnny Thunders in 1991, you can clearly see Hell playing a Gibson EB-1 bass, and evidence suggesting that it is a copy can be debunked by the clarity of the headstock on the album cover on Discogs
He used this bass in the early days of Television and The Heartbreakers.
