The most popular Roundwound bass string ever. Rotosound was the first string company to produce this kind of string. Introduced in 1962 it changed the sound of the instrument instantly. The favourite string of many players including Billy Sheehan, John Paul Jones and Geddy Lee. Available in all popular gauges and scale lengths. The steel used to produce these strings is unique, combined with a highly secretive manufacturing process.
With so many on offer these days, it is great to have a name you can trust. This item is certainly that and will be a perfect buy. The distributor have added some great touches and this equals great value.

Does not fit original Steinberger L2 basses
Owners of original Steinberger L1-L2 basses should note that these instruments originally used Rotosound Superwound 606 strings and were a double-ball round wound single-wire-core exposed at the bridge end of the string. The original Steinberger L2 bridge saddles (v1) were made for the single core (bare single wire core) type string. Rotosound RDB 66LD string sets will not fit on original Steinberger L1, L2 basses without modifying the original bridge saddles.
Rotosound RDB66LD Swing Bass 66 strings are wound all the way to each ball-end and unfortunately the original v1 bridge saddle seat is too narrow to fit these strings without modifying (cutting wider and deeper grooves) in the bridge pieces.
If you own an original Steinberger L1 or L2 bass please note that Rotosound RDB66LD Swing Bass 66 strings will not fit your bass.

A good tight-sounding string
Well, it's the first time I've ever replaced a set of double ball-end strings and I can tell you, it IS as easy as they say it's gonna be!
No winding string ends round the posts and chopping them off, no slippage, no extra pair of hands needed.
But anyway, this is supposed to be a review of the strings, not the double ball-end system, so I'll just say that these Rotosounds are bright and punchy. I'm using them on my Hohner B2ADB and they sound great, even when I lower the E string to C# or D.
Nice tone
Put these on a Steinberger Spirit bass. Sound great with a better over all tone.
