Rotosound has been a game-changer in the world of music strings since 1958. It all began when the founder James How, used his knowledge of engineering design to create himself a winding machine.
The brand quickly gained recognition in the UK, when British rock bands were taking the world by storm. Among their first clients were the Shadows, Beatles, and the Rolling Stones.
They’re best known for creating the Swing Bass 66 strings in 1966—the first roundwound bass strings ever made. These strings are famous for their bright tone and sustain, becoming a favorite for legendary bassists like John Entwistle of The Who and Geddy Lee of Rush.
When it comes to musical strings, few brands have the kind of legacy and reputation that Rotosound does. For decades, they’ve been a go-to choice for many iconic musicians such as Jimi Hendix, Steve Harris of Iron Maiden, Brian May and John Deacon of Queen, Sting from The Police, Nirvana, Pearl Jam and many more.
