The Rickenbacker 4003 in Jetglo is an iconic electric bass that combines unmistakable styling with a powerful, articulate voice. Its solid Maple body is paired with a Maple and Walnut through-body neck, creating a resonant foundation with impressive sustain and presence. The Rosewood fingerboard features 20 frets, distinctive triangle fret markers, and a 25.4 cm (10") crown radius, while the bound neck adds a refined touch to its timeless design.

Two Hi-gain pickups deliver the characteristic Rickenbacker sound, offering deep lows, articulate mids, and bright treble that gives each note clarity and definition. The Mono and Stereo output configuration provides additional flexibility for shaping and routing the bass's two-pickup voice. A RIC tailpiece, V2 bridge, and Schaller machine heads complete the hardware, providing a dependable setup suited to both stage and studio performance.

Finished in Jetglo, the 4003 carries a sleek and commanding visual presence. Its 84.5 cm (33 1/4") scale length offers the familiar feel of a full-scale bass, with a 42.9 mm (1 11/16") neck width at the nut expanding to 54.0 mm (2 1/8") at the 12th fret. Measuring 113.8 cm (44 13/16") in overall length, 34.3 cm (13 1/2") in width, and 31.8 mm (1 1/4") in depth, it balances substantial construction with the elegant proportions that have made the 4003 instantly recognizable. The instrument weighs 4.1 kg (9.0 lbs.), with the supplied specification listing the weight as 9 lbs. 14 oz., and it comes complete with a hard case.

From its Maple body and Maple and Walnut through-body neck to its Rosewood fingerboard, dual Hi-gain pickups, and versatile Mono and Stereo outputs, the Rickenbacker 4003 Jetglo is a bass defined by character. It brings together resonance, sustain, clarity, and punch in an instrument whose sound is as distinctive as its silhouette. With its deep black finish, classic appointments, and commanding tonal presence, the 4003 Jetglo remains a compelling choice for players looking for an unmistakable electric bass.
