Rotosound RS66LDN Swing Bass 45 - 105 Nickel

LONG SCALE 810mm – 860mm | 32″ – 34″

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 bass guitar 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.

Inspired by the penetrating tone of legends such as John Entwistle and Chris Squire, players worldwide have strung up their bass guitars with Swing Bass 66 strings.

The distinctive sound of the roundwound Swing Bass 66 strings have been used by the bass-world’s biggest hitters such as Jaco Pastorius, Geddy Lee, Billy Sheehan, Noel Redding, Duff McKagan, and John Paul Jones. The bright red silk ends are hard to miss!
