Used Rickenbacker 4001FL (1974)
$3,495.00
A 1974 Rickenbacker 4001FL in fantastic condition, brimming with vintage vibes and classic fretless tones. This Ric is a real treasure, with all original parts and Mapleglo finish in excellent cosmetic condition. The mute mechanism in the bridge is still functional, but would need some fresh foam installed to operate properly. Some extra side dots have been added to the fretboard binding with permanent marker (tastefully) and there is a fully stable hairline crack in the pickguard and minor edgewear in the finish, but overall, this 4001 is in top condition for its age. The original hardshell case is included and is also in excellent shape. This bass is capable of producing several iconic bass sounds (including convincing upright bass tones) with its factory fretless neck and original Hi-Gain pickups. Set up for optimal playability with a set of .45 - .100 flatwound strings, this thing is an absolute joy to play.
