GREAT 44 year old player bass!
Completely original, no mods or repairs... comes with OHSC.
This one has a perfect neck set, straight and zero issues with the truss rod.
Lots of player wear on the finish, but frets and fingerboard in great shape!
 
The 4001 is known for its punchy midrange, bright top end, and sharp attack – often described as “piano-like.”
It has a unique feel due to the slightly narrower neck and distinctive body contour.
The stereo "Rick-O-Sound" allows bi-amping (sending bridge and neck pickup signals to different amps), which was ahead of its time.
 
The 1981 Rickenbacker 4001 bass is a highly regarded vintage instrument, known for its distinctive tone, unique design, and association with iconic bassists like Chris Squire, Geddy Lee, and Paul McCartney.
