Great strings, smoother sound/feel than Roto66.
TrEr 26.06.2020
I've never tried these strings before but I really like them. They are very similar to the classic Rotosound 66 Swing Bass strings but have a much smoother feel. The also sound smoother. Slightly less zingy highs than the 66s out of the box. Less fret clank too.

If you like the 66s but think they are just a tad too bright or want the closest sounding strings available with a less abrasive feel for your fingers these are exactly what you are looking for. The have all the classic Roto-sound only slightly less bright.

Very specific feel for hands and sound. While I had this set long time ago I thought I'll try it again. While I cannot say anything bad about craftsmanship, I found sound to not be what I imagined. They're very similar to normal SS strings but a bit mellower. Even though I do not slap I like this "zingg" of SS and I missed it in "solo bass". Overall, they're well done, last pretty long and if you feel SS are too bright and nickel strings to dark then you can try solo bass and see if it suits you.

Tolle Saiten!
Andreas160 15.09.2012
Nachdem die GHS Pressurewounds lange meine Favoriten waren, wollte ich auch mal das "Original" ausprobieren.

Sind immerhin gut 9 Euro teurer, aber: Ich muss sagen, ich bin begeistert und werde wohl bei Rotosound bleiben.
Sie fassen sich zwar etwas rauher an als die GHS, klingen dafür aber auch "offener", haben mehr Obertöne, (Stainless Steel) und das beste:
Das bleibt auch so ! Spiele die Saiten nun schon seit 3 Monaten fast jeden Tag und sie klingen immer noch wie frisch aufgezogen, kommt mir zumindest so vor...
Die GHS möchte ich damit aber nicht abwerten, sind auch tolle Saiten, und für den "wärmeren" Sound und weniger Nebengeräusche beim Greifen eine gute Wahl !
Hängt halt von Stilrichtung und Geschmack ab...

Rotosound bass solo 105...
Antonio Luis 16.04.2013
Sonido claro, potente, muy definido y aún así, versátil. Notas la excelencia del cambio en cualquier bajo de cualquier calidad, aunque evidentemente unas buenas pastillas se lo sacan todo mejor. Muy lejos de dejarte indiferente. Perfectas para slap, solo, clásico, e incluso en manejo muy definido de las distorsiones más locas que se te puedan ocurrir.
