~Bass pictured is the actual bass that you will receive~

This traditional Rickenbacker bass style with dot inlays and no binding was prized by Paul McCartney and Chris Squire when they got their first 4001S models in 1964. Players cherish its traditional look and rounded edges that many claim make it more comfortable than the 4003. The updated 4003S version comes with the improved double-action truss rod system. Of course, the famous solid bass tones, ringing sustain and treble punch they're known for make it a dream. It’s no wonder Rickenbacker received a steady demand of requests to bring this back. This design was once exclusive to the British distributor Rose Morris in the six-ties. Iconic curves of maple form the body with a traditional Rosewood fingerboard. Dot inlays and no binding make this stand out from the standard 4003.

Note: After close inspection, this instrument is free of any major wear, marks and/or blemishes. (See pics)
