Bright, Hard-Hitting Tone

THE STRING THAT STARTED A REVOLUTION

This is the 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.

A STRING FOR EVERYONE

With so many musicians experimenting with unique gauges and drop tunings it is hardly surprising to know that Swing Bass Custom Box Singles, first introduced in the '60s, enjoy more popularity now than ever before.

With such a wide range starting from 0.025" to 0.140" in increments of 0.005", there will be a gauge to suit everyone's custom set.
