The fact that these basses still look cool today, proves that style is key to the success of any instrument. Yet, strangely enough, the basic design was flawed - it’s all down to power emphasis with the ‘main’ pickup being of higher output than the neck unit. Also, the unusual horseshoe magnet that surrounds the main centre body pickup not only produced a powerful and unique sound, it also restricted the amount of string height adjustment. Heavier pick players using roundwound strings would get a degree of fret buzz and, with the lesser powered bridge pickup, the resulting sound was exaggerated and became the trademark Rickenbacker ‘clank’.
