    La bella low tension flats for Rickenbacker 4001?

    Hey, I've been looking for a set of light gauge flats for my 4001. I've narrowed it down to the La Bella low tension flats or the Thomastik jazz flats. Anyone tried the LA bellas on a 4001? And are they safe for the neck? Thanks

    Yet another tonewood post

    Lowend lobster put Rickenbacker pickups in a Harley Benton bass. It did not sound like a ric. So I guess the wood, the scale length and type of materials clearly make a difference

    NBD - 75’ Ric 4001

    Finally got one! Traded a guy locally my 78 jazz bass for this Ric. Has a Hipshot bridge but I think I’m going to put the original back on it and the pickup cover. I’m a sucker for original. Never owned a Ric before! Excited to join the club.

    Rickenbacker stereotypes ??

    Ive heard people say things on the internet to other people such as "I bet you you like rics" Assuming its an insult, any stereotypes going around about ric players ? Also what dont people like about them ?

    Ricky finish checks?

    I’m refinishing a dumpster 1974 Rickenbacker 4001. I don’t want it to look like a 2020 glossy wall hanger, so a very light relic finish. My question: do old Rick finishes check? Come to think of it, I don’t think I’ve ever seen it.

    Building Ric-like Bass

    I am building a Ric-like 4001 bass and I am looking for pickups. I have thought of Joe Bardens and Bartolinis. Any others?

    Mike Rutherford Genesis 1972 Ric Question

    So, I’ve been watching Genesis’ 1972 Belgian Tv appearance more closely recently. I always knew Rutherford was playing a Ric 4001, but I just noticed the control layout and I don’t recall ever seeing anything like it. I’ve included a screenshot. I’m curious as to whether anyone knows anything...

    Recorded a new Ep with my 77 4001.

    Just released a new Ep with my band. Last time I recorded I used an old Fender P this time I used a 1977 rickenbacker 4001. It sounds big and dirty. I'm pretty happy with the tone. Hawthorne Boogie is the easiest one to pick out the bass on.
