Vintage original 1973 Rickenbacker model 4001 bass in original Mapleglo finish. A classic vintage Rickenbacker 4001 with all the early features.   Original checkerboard binding.   Original early bridge with aluminum saddles.  A light and resonant example.   Sounds incredible plugged in with that classic vintage Ric percussive tone. Bass is all original but is missing chrome cover, the nut is changed, and the strap pins have been changed.  There is also a small chip in the pickguard.   The rest of the wear on the bass is normal play wear.  No cracks or breaks.    Comes with a vintage hardshell case, period correct.
