Up for sale, a 2010 Rickenbacker 4003 in like-new, 100% original condition and in perfect working order, complete with the original hardshell case and hangtags.This 4003 features a discontinued Midnight Blue gloss finish and push/pull Tone control for the bridge pickup.
Boasting maple neck-through construction with a bound rosewood fingerboard, yielding healthy sustain and an immediate, resonant quality channeled through the Hi-Gain pickup pair. These single coils have a distinctive midrange heft and tonal color, with plenty of growl and low end richness. The push/pull Tone knob engaged a capacitor that filters bass response from the signal for a more present, focused sound associated with '70s Rics. This 4003 is lightweight at 8lbs 15oz, professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 45-100 flatwound strings, easy-playing action, and accurate intonation.
