I asked on the Ric site but no answer so far.
Id like to know so I can have a known starting point for trying something a little higher tension.

They are 45-55-75-105
From the rickenbacer site:

As you can see, th A and D is a bit lighter than most sets around, I'd keep that in mind when you go looking. There are many threads on this forum regarding strings, both rounds and flats. Good luck!

Hi y'all:
1. I'm looking for TENSION numbers. Not GUAGE.
2. As stated, I cannot find these anywhere online including here and the Ric forums.
3. Sorry for the smartphonese!

Sorry, I was a bit quick reading it.
It's being said in this thread the rick strings are rebranded d'addarios. Rickenbacker are also working on a list of suitable strings. viewtopic.php?f=2&t=414571

In order to achieve consistent tone string-to-string, there is not much difference in strings gauge-to-gauge of nickel plated roundwounds, irrespective of who actually makes them. Yes, the core and/or wrap wire can vary in proportion a thou or so, and maybe have a couple of pounds tension difference string-to-string of the same overall diameter, but not that much.

So to get a ballpark I would consult the various string tension charts that are available.
