Review: Nice strings - Great set of strings, nice clean sound
Review: Great balanced tone, but they do lose brightness - I have been playing bass for over 20 years, and tried many different strings. The Rotosound Swing Bass 66 strings provide an even, balanced tone which suits lots of different playing styles. They have a nice deep low end, but not as thumpy as flats. A punchy mid range, and a little top end bite without being overly zingy. However, they do tend do lose their brightness quicker than other strings, and they have a rougher texture which some say causes damage to frets, but this is not something I have experienced yet. They also seem to be slightly lower tension than some of the other roundwounds I have used previously, so you may need to give your truss rod a tweak when installing them for the first time. Overall, they are now my go-to string, and I would recommend giving them a try.

**Q: Which rotosound strings fit a gibson rd artist bass?**
A: Pretty sure the RD is a long scale bass ( 34") (from nut to 12th fret x2 will give you the scale length.)   should be right, been using RS66Lds for 35 years on a '87 G&L1000.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Best Roundwound Bass Strings Available
*by M***Y on 1 October 2024*

After discovering these Rotosound Roundwound Swing Bass strings over 40 years ago they have been my go to strings for my bass guitars. Unless you want the dull thud of a flatwound string (which has it's place) these are a must. They make any bass guitar sound infinitely better.
