NBD! Rickenbacker content

Its a nice bass. I played around with it all day yesterday. Im still not sure what kind of strings I'll run on her, the Dunlop SS superbrights I put on are almost to bright. Im thinking of trying some nickle strings.

Super Brights are awesome. Wait for the zing to wear out a tad and you will love them. Seem to keep a bright, punchy tone forever.

Nice bass BTW, however, I'm not too sure about Rick's tomatoeglo color :bag: Could be the photos.
 
Jeff, I had a set of TI Jazz rounds on an old 76? 4001 that I converted to a 4000. Loved them. Maybe I'll give them a try. Just a factoid here, but I sold that bass to Paul W., and he restored her into a fretless shadow.
