Rickenbacker 4003S Bass (FireGlo)

$2,249.00
Sold Out

NEW – This traditional Rickenbacker bass style with dot inlays and no binding was prized by Paul McCartney and Chris Squire when they got their first 4001S models in 1964. Players cherish its traditional look and rounded edges that many claim make it more comfortable than the 4003. The updated 4003S version comes with the improved slim neck profile. Of course, the famous solid bass tones, ringing sustain and treble punch that Rickenbacker is known for. This design was once exclusive to the British distributor Rose Morris in the sixties. Iconic curves of maple form the body with a traditional Rosewood fingerboard.

The 4003S now features the new V.2. bass bridge pickup which offers the same classic Rickenbacker bass tone we all love, but with a newly designed pickup cover allowing you to freely access the strings anywhere on the body.

Comes with an official Rickenbacker Deluxe Hardshell Case.
