Hello Im looking to move my Ric 4003 Mapleglo. Was recently setup and plays/sounds wonderful. Only looking to move because I just purchased an Orion 5 string and I need to try and recoup some funds. There is not a mark on her I can see, will ship in OHSC. Looking for $1450 shipped in the CONUS only. Thank you for looking! - Tom

What year is it? Does it have the push / pull vintage switch on the treble volume control?

echo008 · « **Reply #4 on:** November 04, 2014, 02:32:07 PM »

Hi, Yes it has the push/pull pot. I believe its from 2009. Thanks

That is a sweetie of a bass. I had a '72 toaster/checkerboard 4001 from '73-94. Owning another Ricky is definitely on my bucket list, but I miss the checkerboard binding.

Were those the ones with the crushed inlays and toasters, for sure very nice. You can't get one of those for $1450

Man, I'm seriously thinking about pulling the trigger. My 1st Pro bass was the Rickenbacker 1974 Black Beauty (I bought it in 1974 @ 8th street music in Philly)! And now that I have the rig to run it properly muh trigger finger is gettin' mighty itchy!!

It's been recently setup. Alot of the Rics Ive played in store had nuts that were cut very high form the factory, I had this gone over the nut was adjusted and the action is very nice.
let me know if you have any questions
Thanks.

That's a great price. There's got to be a Ricky fan to snatch this one.
