Wiring Harness for Rickenbacker 4001/4003 Basses w/Vintage Tone Option, ROS and SoZo Tone Caps


I built this harness using components from many of the same suppliers that Rickenbacker also uses, and optimized it for use with the stock Hi-Gain, RIHS, or Toaster pickups. The main tone caps are SoZo .047uF spec units, while the pickup selector is made by Switchcraft. Unlike the factory harness, these pots are within 10% of rated spec, and matched in pairs to within 1% of each other. The volume pots are solid shaft 250K CTS, while the bridge tone pot is a 500K Bourns push-pull to activate the vintage tone option using a .0047uF tone cap. The neck pickup tone pot is a CTS with a 500K rating, and the output jacks are Switchcraft, all wired up with vintage style cloth insulated 22 gauge wire. This harness is ideal for any Rickenbacker 4001 or 4003 with single coil pickups and Rick-O-Sound output jacks. I also have vintage style knobs at $12.00 a set to go with this harness. I can build a custom harness for most Rickenbacker guitars and basses. ***Note: Push-pull controls require 1" of cavity depth below the control.***Any questions, please as
