  • Sale
  • Regular price $2,999.00


You know what it is...one of the most famous basses of all time, and with good reason. The 4001 is versatile and powerful--the perfect low-end companion for a variety of genres and flavors. This particular one hails from 1980, and has been aging gracefully ever since!

The lore of this legendary bass certainly speaks for itself, but we've included some specs for you, just in case... 

Crafted from Maple, it has the classic D neck profile (0.950-0.970") and 7.25" radius with a 1.875" nut width and Bubinga and Rosewood fretboard. The dual stock pickups sound as punchy and growly as ever. The traditional controls of Vol-Vol-Tone-Tone with a 3-way switch let you dial in all the tones this legendary bass is capable of. From Ace of Spades to Mrs. Vanderbilt, there's not a bad tone to be found here. 

Join Lemmy and McCartney and countless other superstar bassists and scoop up this vintage Jetglo hero before someone else does!

The light wear from over the years can be seen in the photos, but as you can see, it's nothing beyond the normal playwear that you'd expect from a bass of this age. 

This Rick has received a pro fret level and setup by one of our badass luthiers and is ready for stage or studio! It'll ship safely and swiftly in a Fender hardshell case. Feel free to give us a call the shop with any questions you may have about this beast.
