I've tried other brand strings for my Rickenbacker bass, but I keep coming back to these. They sound and feel great!

These strings are bright and stay bright over time. the slight difference in the A and D strings make them the reason i use them. great High end and low end tones.

Got tired of my flat wounds and these are the best strings you'll find for your Rickenbacker for the money.

The perfect strings for your RIC 4003, less expensive than buying them from RIC, and the right scale and gauge. Thank you Sam Ash for super fast shipping!

I just picked up electric bass having played an acoustic my whole life. I got my hands on a Peavey T40 from 1980 and it had old nasty strings prob from around then. The bassist in my band recommended trying Rick strings and having played his 4003 before, I was apprehensive due to how light the gauge felt compared to the cable wire on my acoustic. Now that I've been playing it all week, I find that I can achieve the same tone just by playing drastically lighter, and that I in fact had way more control over the tone / expression based on the velocity of my plucks/double thumbs. Highly recommend these to folks who want to do singing bends and have a whoooole lot of dynamics to their slap/thump.

These are the best string I've found for my Ric, which might be due to the unique gauge Rickenbacker uses. It really does fit the best. I've tried other strings, mainly the same Rotosound 66s I use on other basses. While these gave me a great tone with the bass they never felt right, even the lighter sets. I was skeptical of the Ric strings due to the odd Gauge but gave them a shot. The tension is perfect and the tone sounds great. I'm quite happy with these, but I don't understand why other companies don't market sets with the Rickenbacker gauge. Seems like an easily filled void in the market.
