Construction made entirely of maple for legendary sustain and triple punch

High-grade maple was used to create the Rickenbacker 4003S/5. Because maple is so sturdy, it helps to preserve the neck’s structural integrity, which spans the full length of the body. The neck-through construction and density of the maple are partly to blame for the guitar’s renowned bite and snarl. As you explore the bottom B string of this amazing instrument, the broad rosewood fingerboard provides a touch of warmth and harmonic intricacy, balancing off the dazzling high end with strong, deep bass. With the Rickenbacker 4003S/5 bass, create your own famous sound.
