Rickenbacker 4003

Neck-through electric bass model family

Electric bass · United States

The long-running successor to the 4001, introduced around 1979 and still in production, the 4003 is Rickenbacker's signature neck-through 'cresting wave' bass. It carries two single-coil pickups, a maple body and neck, full-length skunk-stripe neck-through construction, deluxe triangular inlays, and mono/stereo output, delivering the ringing sustain and treble punch heard on countless rock recordings.
