Rotosound RS66LD Swing Bass Electric Bass 4 String Set (45-105)

I really like these strings. They have a nice, bright metallic sound--great for the mainly 70s classic rock that I'll be playing with these. I think I found my new go-to strings.

Best bass strings ever!!

Best strings for your bass!

The deep!! Lows are so hard and TONE. There is reason many big names play these. These are not very bright, even new. These sound so good fresh you can play gigs and not have to wait for them to mellow. I love the ‘45s as well, they have a touch more top end but super similar. The ‘66s are super deep. You can obtain flat string sounds and killer round tones. ‘66s are killer, I’ll probably stick with these for quite sometime. Playing some other competitor strings, that cost more, did not work out. Rotos for the tone.

There are no ther strings.

These strings have been around a very long time and have been used by lots of famous players, including my favorite bass player, Geddy Lee, which is what prompted me to give them a shot. I found them to be far too coarse feeling for my tastes and after using them for a week or so, I removed them and went with my normal brand. I'm not saying they are horrible, just that they aren't for me.

You cannot go wrong using these strings

I put these on an 80s Kramer Striker bass. Rotosound has the bite and grit required for loud rock and metal bass playing. The feel is rougher than nickel roundwounds but you get used to it quickly.For the first week, the treble response was incredible and every note would sing like a piano string. This tapered off after a week and now they sound like standard nickel roundwounds but with a mid-range bump.Buy a set if you've ever wanted your bass to sound super bright and cut through a mix like nobody's business.
