Pre-owned in good, well-played condition, this 1982 Rickenbacker 4003 is finished in a classic Jetglo which has aged and faded nicely. This Rickenbacker has received a few modifications over it's life which have mostly been restored to original.

This Ric shows obvious signs of use from the last 43 years including scratches and marks to the finish as pictured. The pickups are all-original, however, the bridge pickup had been previously replaced including the removal of the replacement of the Rick-O-Sound input jack. The E-string machine head has been replaced with a drop-d Hipshot tuner. The frets are in good condition with only a small amount of wear.

A classic bass with heaps of genuine play mojo, comes with a hardshell case.

The Rickenbacker 4003 Bass is famous for its ringing sustain, treble punch, and solid underlying bottom end. It's also famous for its distinctive, elegantly curved body shape, accentuated by a subtle strip of binding, deluxe triangular fretboard inlays, stereo output, neck-thru-body construction, double truss rods, and high output single-coil pickups with wide response range and brilliant clarity. The Vintage Tone Selector activates a capacitor in the treble pickup circuit to emphasize the high end. Pressed in, you get the familiar 4003 sound, pull it out to add bite and crispness. Includes case.
