Swing Bass 66 - Drop Zone Custom Gauge 65-130

Made for explorers of drop tuning, this is the thicker gauge version of the roundwound 
string that James How and John Entwistle perfected into what was to become the industry standard. 
The bright punchy high energy sound this string offers is a big part of early rock music 
as we know it and brought the bass player from the back line to the front.
This set allows bass players to lower their tunings down to B (for tuning down to F# try our Drop 
Zone Plus bass strings)

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
