Rotosound RS88S Tru Bass Black Nylon Flatwound Bass Guitar Strings 65-115 Short Scale

The 'Black Nylon Trubass' string was originally developed for the Burn's Black Bison Bass. Great Strings to simulate a double bass sound on an standard bass guitar.

These strings have made the most famous appearance on the top of the 'Apple' building while Paul McCartney was playing his Hofner.

You will note that the tension is low, making this string extremely comfortable to play and the heavier gauge is due to anything lighter and the strings themselves would start to flap.

**PLEASE NOTE** These are SHORT Scale Strings.

The string measures 32.5 inches from the ball end to the start of the silk covering. N.B. These strings have silk at both ends.

Gauge RS88S - 65, 75, 100, 115

Rotosound Tru Bass Flatwound RS88S Bass Strings 65-115 Black Nylon, Short Scale

Provides a deep bass sound. Not quite so good on the upper register but really useful where you want to dominate the lower frequencies. A nice double bass emulation would be one way of putting it.
