About This Listing
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 dual trussrod system. Of course, the famous solid bass tones, ringing sustain and treble punch Rickenbacker is known for make it a dream.
It’s no wonder they’ve received a steady demand of requests to bring this back. This design was once exclusive to the British distributor Rose Morris in the six-ties. Iconic curves of maple form the body with a traditional Rosewood fingerboard. Dot inlays and no binding make this stand out from the standard 4003.

About the Seller
Product Overview
Just as the 4001 was introduced as an upgrade to the 4000, the Rickenbacker 4003 was introduced in 1980 as an upgrade to the 4001. After the 4001 was discontinued in 1986, the 4003 became Rickenbacker's main production bass. The two basses actually differ very little apart from a few minor cosmetic changes and a change in the trust rod system. The 4003S follows the same basic design as the 4003 with the exception of the omission of binding and triangle inlays.
Body Style: “Cresting Wave” solidbody
Wood Composition: Maple body, Maple neck, Rosewood fingerboard
Design Elements: Neck-thru construction, triangular inlay, bound neck, Ric-O-Sound wiring
Notable Rickenbacker Bass Players: Geddy Lee, Paul McCartney, Chris Squire, Lemmy Kilmister, Cliff Burton
