Sound Pure's Take
Condition: Used, Great
Very minor buckle rash
It is always a joy playing a Rickenbacker bass if you want classic tones and something different from you standard P or J. Equipped with stereo outputs (think of the possibilities!) and a maple body with rosewood fingerboard you get a very round sound with an immediacy that really sits nicely in the mix. If you're a bassist looking for something different that will also be instantly recognizeable to the ear if you like vintage tones then give us a call to talk about this incredible Rickenbacker 4003!
From Other (Miscellanous Used/Vintage/Consign)
The Classic Rickenbacker bass - famous for its ringing sustain, treble punch and solid underlying bass. A subtle strip of binding graces the elegantly curved body and the Rosewood fingerboard. Deluxe triangular inlays and stereo capability are standard features.
