Rotosound RS66LN Swing Bass Nickel Bass Strings (45-100)
Description
A nickel-coated version of our best-selling Swing Bass 66 strings.
This is the roundwound string that James How and John Entwistle perfected into what was to become the industry standard.
The bright, punchy, high-energy sound of Swing Bass 66 strings is a major part of early rock music history and brought the bass player from the back line to the front of the stage.
Rotosound was the first string company to produce this kind of string. Introduced in 1962 it changed the sound of the instrument instantly. The favourite string of many players including Billy Sheehan, John Paul Jones and Geddy Lee.
