Zero-Mod 4003FB FatBoy Thumb-Rest for Pre-2015 Rickenbacker 4003 Bass NO MODS!

Description: Please read the ENTIRE listing. This Thumb Rest DOES NOT FIT some of the 2014-2016 Ric 4003's, and none of the 4003's from 2017 on. Those may require our 4003v2 rest. If you are shopping on a phone, please hit the READ MORE link below for details and illustrations. This FITS ALL Ric 4003 basses made before 2015 with a one piece guard - Older two piece guard Ric 4003 requires a 4001 style rest (Contact us thru messaging about those. We have them, but need to confirm fit with you as the early 4001's and 4003's changed profiles year to year so we'd want to see which you have to give you the right fit.) This WILL FIT some early-2014 4003W, but check the pickguard pictures above to verify the guard used. (The 2014 4003W pickguard changed mid-year, so it can go either way.) MAY NOT FIT THE 2015, 2016 or later editions of the 4003S or 4003Wor 2016 editions of the 4003. ( see pics to verify which guard you have - 4003 pickguard transition years are 2014-2017 ) WILL NOT FIT the 2017 and later editions of 4003 or any 4003 variants.( see pics to verify which guard you have - 4003 pickguard transition years are 2014-2017 ) Please see our listings for the 4003v2 and the 4003v2FB for 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2023, 2022, 2023 etc Rickenbacker 4003's with this new standard guard style. This is the slightly fatter version of the classic Zero-Mod® thumb Rest for Rickenbacker model 4003. The classic is 1/4 inch thick, this "Fat Boy" is 3/8 thick. We made this in response to requests from Ric owners who loved the original but felt a somewhat thicker one would be the thing!We freely admit these aren't for everybody -- most players think the 1/4 inch is just right. These "Fat Boy's" work best for players with really large hands, or players who want something closer to the extra height of the classic Fender rest.Before ordering, check out our picture of the FatBoy to compare it to the classic (thinner) 4003 rest. We can "frost" the finish of these on request for no extra charge. Includes lifetime guarantee against breakage. OK, So What Is It? ================= A custom thumb rest for the Rickenbacker bass. With ZERO modifications required to your bass! If you are a fingerstyle player with a Rickenbacker 4001 or 4003, you know there is no really good place to "hang your thumb" - You see many Rics with a wear spot at the corner of the pickguard, where players try to "dig in", and many Rics with the chrome cover removed from the bridge pickup to allow finger style access. I designed this for my own 4003 as I wanted to make it more comfortable to play and keep the "cover on" as the classic look that is a big part of this bass for many Ric fans. This thumb rest is made out of 3/8 inch thick high quality dead clear polycarbonate, and precision CNC made in a machine shop here in the USA to match the shape of your guard perfectly. The position and design mean NO NEW HOLES in your bass! Includes two pick guard screws which are slightly longer than the stock Ric screws, so you do not even change the screw holes by adding this on. These are close to invisible on a black or white guard from a few feet away. Pics show this clear rest on my blue 4003 with white guard. PLEASE feel FREE to email us about your Ric before ordering!
