Product Details

A Rickenbacker 4001, a representative bass model, has arrived.

This particular instrument, with serial number "SA 230," is believed to have been manufactured in January 1979, although the pot date indicates 1978.

Its maple body, maple neck-through construction, and rosewood fingerboard contribute to a tight and fast tone. With its characteristic Rickenbacker hard attack and clear sound, it stands out even in a band ensemble.

The front pickup has been replaced with a Seymour Duncan, and the wiring has been modified, resulting in a standard mono output.

The reddish finish, which allows the wood grain to show through, combined with the aged appearance and what appears to be a Burgundyglo-like color, gives it a vintage feel.
