Swing Bass 66 5-String set - Standard Gauge 45-130

This is the stainless steel 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.

For the players
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 our 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!

For the players
They really sound great, there’s a real organic feel to them, I’ve been to the factory where they’re 
hand making them… 
It’s such a part of the tone of everything I do!”
I’m a finger player and when my fingers grip the string the edges on the Rotosound’s, because they’re 
hand wound, grip really strongly so I can get a really good snap of power out of each note.”
