About This Listing

Up for sale is a 1979 Rickenbacker 4001 bass in a Mapleglo finish. As seen in pics, the output jack that has the serial # has corrosion but the bass has been dated through the pot codes and has all original electronics. There has been a repair on the headstock where a crack has run through the top two tuner holes, as well as other dings & discoloration as noted in pics. None of these effect the playability, it's a great bass with no issues other than the cosmetics. Comes with a hard shell case, not sure if it's the original but it is a Ric case and looks aged appropriate for the era.

Will ship to lower 48. Thanks for looking at my stuff!

Product Overview
Initially developed as a deluxe, two-pickup upgrade to Rickenbacker’s 4000 bass, the Rickenbacker 4001 bass guitar has become a notable model for its long list of famous players. First released in 1961 with production lasting through the very early ‘80s, the 4001 has earned fans in bass players like Lemmy Kilmister, Kim Gordon, Rick James, Geddy Lee, and many, many more. The extra pickup was added to the 4001 to widen tonal possibilities and up the bass frequency response.
