Anyone use/d rotosound strings

[Sykes]

They are cheap, but feel very supple on my Carvin.

Anyone else like or dislike them?

Do they seem similar to Ernie Balls? I've heard in England, the two are made in the same factory.

I used them on my bass a couple of times back when I played. I wasn't very impressed with the bass strings they make....more expensive than GHS, and didn't last nearly as long.

I have not tried their guitar strings.

I had a set of elixers, rotos, and then a set of Ernies, (the green pack) didn't care for them. I felt the difference. Didin't really like the elixers either. The elixers felt good, but the tone seemed muffled.
I guess you gotta go with what feels good to you, just wondering if anyone likes them or not.

I agree completely. I've not used Rotosounds, but have been curious about them.

I've used the 66 Swing Bass strings on my T-Bird occasionally. I don't really like them on the Jazz or the G&L.

Re: Anyone use/d rotosound strings

Acually i LOVE rotosounds , i use them in my main strat , recently i switched to Ernie Balls and i was dissapointed
Ernie balls was too bright and had sharp attack , lacked warmness and fullness of sound.
And Rotosound are great for me - i do lots of bends and they bend like butter , and the tone itself is warm , round and full not too sharp and not too greasy.
"Just perfect" at least to my tastes
