The Original Chromatic Revolution
With its sleek good looks and the elegant simplicity of its construction, 
the CX12 Black turned a lot of heads when it was introduced in 1992. 
It won the German Industry Design Award shortly afterwards, which was 
definitely a first for a harmonica instrument in modern times. 
Its powerful, distinctive sound and fast, easy response make it 
ideal for the ambitious amateur or contemporary professional player 
looking for a modern, easy to service chromatic harmonica in styles 
such as rock, pop and jazz.

Referred by many as the main workhorse of the Artisan Series, the Artisan C Class has now received new cool 
colors to really make a presence wherever it is being played. A lighter, more player-friendly Poplar body is 
used, while the same premium hardware such as the MetalCraft M bridge with versatile string loading system and 
Bartolini® MK-1 pickup set with Markbass® MB-1 preamp add superb tone and playability to the new Artisan C4 
Deluxe.

Poplar Body
Poplar is a fine tonewood that is reminiscent of Alder in sonic character. Full sounding with strong mids and a 
firm low-end that’s well balanced across the tonal spectrum, Poplar suits a variety of musical genres and 
playing styles for both electric guitars and basses.

Bartolini® MK-1 Pickups
The trademark Bartolini® sound is preserved in the MK-1 while providing outstanding sound quality and value. 
The MK-1 delivers plenty of punchy and warm mids along with transparent and brilliant highs for a superbly 
balanced sound.

Markbass® MB-1 Preamp
The Markbass® MB-1 preamp provides a very natural and transparent boost that does not color the organic nature 
or resonance of the instrument’s woods. The combination of crystal clarity and natural warmth exudes a passive 
feel with smooth lows, full-bodied mids, and bell-like highs.

MetalCraft M Bridge
The solid, high-mass MetalCraft M bridge was developed with more focus on ease-of-use and greater tone transfer. 
Depending on the thickness of the strings, the dual string loading system allows the strings to be loaded either 
through the body or from the top to find the best optimal string tension, resulting in enhanced sustain, greater 
playability and focused sound. MetalCraft M has a string spacing of 19mm (0.748") for the 4-string M4.

Hard Maple Neck & Jatoba Fretboard
The combination of hard maple neck and jatoba fretboard provides tone balance and stability, as well as long 
sustaining durability.

Rotosound Swing Bass 66 5-String Medium 40- 125 Long Scale

This is the stainless steel 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.

For the players
Inspired by the penetrating tone of legends such as John Entwistle and Chris Squire, players worldwide have strung 
up their bass guitars with Swing Bass 66 strings.
The distinctive sound of our roundwound Swing Bass 66 strings have been used by the bass-world’s biggest hitters 
such as Jaco Pastorius, Geddy Lee, Billy Sheehan, Noel Redding, Duff McKagan, and John Paul Jones. The bright red 
silk ends are hard to miss!"

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."

Great British quality
Manufactured in the UK to precise tolerances and using only the finest materials, you can rely on Rotosound strings 
for consistent tone and performance in every packet.
Every Swing Bass 66 string is manufactured on custom built machines designed and built in the UK by Jason How.

Iconic music strings
This innovation continues Rotosound’s proud legacy of cutting-edge string design that started with our roundwound 
strings in the sixties.Developed in conjunction with some of the world's top artists, Rotosound strings are 
synonymous with timeless tone, longevity and rock history. Started in 1958 by James How, an engineer who made 
strings for his own instruments, Rotosound became known around the world for its superior quality products and 
famous endorsees such as Jimi Hendrix, Pink Floyd, and Queen to name just a few. The Who’s John Entwistle started 
a long partnership with James and helped develop the Swing Bass roundwound strings which have become the industry 
standard. Gathering the most prominent artists over the following decades from Jaco Pastorius to The Edge, Oasis 
to Guthrie Govan, Rotosound has been the go-to string for every music generation."
