Rotosound RS55LD Pressure Wound 45-105

Rotosound Solo Bass 55 - RS 55LD 45-65-85-105
(Stainless Steel Pressure Wound)

The original 'pressure wound' Bass string designed in the mid 70's. Due to rolling, mass is retained and therefore brightness. Solo Bass strings eliminate finger noise, reduce fret wear, work well on fretless basses and excel in the studio.

Rotosound strings struck gold 1966 when John Entwistle of The Who came to the Rotosound factory in search of a new set of bass strings. He spent the afternoon trying out countless different gauges of strings before settling on a set that would become known as the Rotosound Swing Bass 66.

Rotosound strings are endorsed by a big, varied mix of bands and artists (past and present)...
