Features 5

  • Fits long scale 4-string electric bass: standard 45-105 set in .045, .065, .080 and .105 with 37 inches (940 mm) of winding from ball end to red silk; measure ball end anchor to nut, then to tuning post, and this set fits when 37 inches falls between the two
  • Made in the UK: wound at Rotosound's own factory in Sevenoaks, Kent, by the company that has made strings in England since 1958, to the precise tolerances Rotosound built its name on
  • How it sounds: bright, hard-hitting stainless steel roundwound tone with medium output, the Swing Bass 66 voice that moved the bass player from the back line to the front of the stage
  • Who plays it: the roundwound James How and John Entwistle perfected into the industry standard, used by Geddy Lee, Chris Squire, Billy Sheehan and Duff McKagan, with the bright red silk ends you can spot from the crowd

The favourite string of many players including Billy Sheehan, John Paul Jones and Geddy Lee. Available in all popular gauges and scale lengths. The steel used to produce these strings is unique, combined with a highly secretive manufacturing process.

The growl!
Style: Single
Put these on my MX Fender & omg what a difference. The growl is incredible. Sounds like Chris Squire’s 70’s Rick bass.

The best strings on the market
Style: Single
To me Rotosound swing bass strings are the best on the market. I’ve been using them for many years. I buy two sets at a time. First, medium lights for the A,D&G strings and standard gauge for the E string. This keeps the tone from changing when I drop from my higher strings down to my E string. This works great. If Rotosound strings are good enough for the late Chris Squire and for Geddy Lee, they are certainly good enough for me! ... show more
