Rickenbacker 4001 & 4003 Bass Thumb Rests & No-Drill Tug Bars

About

Optimize your Rickenbacker’s playability with the Opus Series Bass Thumb Rest. Specifically engineered for the unique geometry of the Rickenbacker 4001 and 4003 series, our no-drill tug bars provide a secure, ergonomic anchor point without the need for permanent modifications to your instrument's body or pickguard. Each rest is manufactured in-house by Ploutone and features our signature microtextured grip for maximum stability during high-intensity playing. Find Your Perfect Fit Eliminating the Spacing Guesswork Because Rickenbacker screw spacings have varied significantly over the decades, finding a compatible finger rest shouldn't be a gamble. We offer three precision-fit models to ensure a seamless, factory-integrated look for your specific bass: Model Compatibility Guide Modern 4003 Series (84mm): Precision engineered for current production models. Newer 4001 Series (85mm): Tailored for later-era 4001 transitional models. Vintage & Older 4001 (87mm): Precision fit for classic 4001 basses and older series. To ensure the best fit for your specific instrument, we strongly recommend comparing the center-to-center measurements of your current pickguard screws to the diagrams provided in the product images before placing your order. Available in Black, White, Cream, and Gold , the Opus series provides the perfect balance of vintage preservation and modern performance. No drilling, no slipping—just a professional-grade anchor for your thumb. .product-description { text-align: left; } .hidden-content { display: none; } .read-more-check { display: none; } .read-more-check:checked ~ .hidden-content { display: block; } .read-more-btn { display: inline-block; padding: 10px 20px; color: #ffffff; background-color: transparent; border: 2px solid #ffffff; border-radius: 5px; font-size: 16px; font-weight: bold; cursor: pointer; transition: background-color 0.3s ease, color 0.3s ease, transform 0.3s ease; } .read-more-btn:hover { background-color: #ffffff; color: #1a1a1a; tr
