This one is in pretty good shape

I've never even knew these existed until today. I guess it was the companion to the 3000 series bass? Has anyone ever plugged one of these in before?

Price is a little on the high side but it sure looks sweet and the sound blows my 4001 c64s away!

Looking good so far!

Man, I can't wait to see the next step in this conversion. Rickenbacker "bass porn" at it's finest!
Keep up the good work!

You could try a set of Optima 4099. I guess you seen that thread on those already?
Side by side on two different basses, they are so close to Maxima that I couldn’t see, feel, or hear much difference.

Wow, you know I did buy a set of the Optima 4099 strings a few months ago and guess I assumed ...

Anyway, if anyone has a NOS set of Maximas (McCartney kind)they're looking to sell, I'd definitely be interested.

The blanked out begining of my last response looks ALOT worse than what I actually said by the way.

Oh well, I guess I was a little late. Hopefully another set will come up soon.
The TI's are good and all for the time being, but it would be nice to find the real mccoy. Thanks for the replys though.

Hey all. Anyone know where I could track down a set of Maxima/Rickenbacker NOS bass strings?
Thanks!!

I don't know, I'd still like to give that bass a whril.

Hmmm. I bet if people didn't know what caused the discoloration, this "custom colour" may have received more than a few complements.
Just sayin'.

Does anyone out there know of a Canadian retailer that stocks C series Rickenbackers, preferably the 4001c64 bass?
Thanks!

TI flats all the Macca way!

I'm a newbie(in posting that is) but have always browsed through this site for the knowledge of it's members.
If the the magic number is "30" then so be it.
