Thinking of trying out some Rotosound's

[Texas Swamp]

I have been interested in them for a while since I have heard they make great bass strings. Anyone have any experience with them and how they sound?

When I play bass I use ONLY Rotosound strings and I have wanted to try their guitar strings for a while but I can't find them around here...

I used their 9-42, 9-46 and 10-46 back in the day. They were GREAT for me, up there with Ernie Balls, only cheaper! Plus an extra 1st is always welcome. :smokin:

I can't find them anymore in stores, though.

for bass they are killer, no idea about their guitar strings though. But considering quality and sound they shouldn't be far removed from the quality they offer on bass

Rotosound has a great reputation for bass strings, they're fine strings...
I used to use the Swing Bass 66 on my T-Bird, I still prefer the D'Addario 50-105 on most basses and the D'Addario 45-100 on the T-Bird.

Aside from the red wraps, the D'Addarios are more "crisp" and seem to hold that "crispness" longer than the Rotosounds. But no experience with the guitar strings.
