Rickenbacker 4003 Electric Bass Guitar

The Rickenbacker 4003 electric bass guitar is one of the few electric basses to have earned the accolade "classic" as a title for itself. The Rickenbacker 4000 Series guitar is attributed for creating new dimensions of bass playing capabilities. Basses by Rickenbacker are made by hand in America, using traditional methods refined and honed.

The Rickenbacker 4003 electric bass guitars can be traced back to the original 1928 patent. This bass guitars pickup is renowned for its unbelievable clarity and wide range response. The 4003 electric model is a single, hum protected design with high power output. Adjustment screws lower and raise units according to the guitarists preference.

The Rickenbacker has a toggle pickup selector that guitarists may switch from one output channel to the other, or both. Each 4003 electrical bass has separate pickup controls and separate treble and bass tone controls. The hallmark of this guitar has always been the neck which runs the full length of the bass.

Rickenbacker electrical bass guitars have a fluidly sculpted body and head that serves to establish proper instrument balance. You can play easily without fatigue due to its thin fast neck and ergonomically accurate body contour.

Make sure to always protect your instrument, especially if your on the road alot. All Rickenbacker bass guitars are protected with a deluxe molded hardshell case, which also includes an accessory pocket, heavy-duty hardware, and extra padding.
