Rotosound RS55LD Solo Bass

Great strings, smoother sound/feel than Roto66.

I've never tried these strings before but I really like them. They are very similar to the classic Rotosound 66 Swing Bass strings but have a much smoother feel. The also sound smoother. Slightly less zingy highs than the 66s out of the box. Less fret clank too.

If you like the 66s but think they are just a tad too bright or want the closest sounding strings available with a less abrasive feel for your fingers these are exactly what you are looking for. The have all the classic Roto-sound only slightly less bright.

Very specific feel for hands and sound. While I had this set long time ago I thought I'll try it again. While I cannot say anything bad about craftsmanship, I found sound to not be what I imagined. They're very similar to normal SS strings but a bit mellower. Even though I do not slap I like this "zingg" of SS and I missed it in "solo bass". Overall, they're well done, last pretty long and if you feel SS are too bright and nickel strings to dark then you can try solo bass and see if it suits you.
