Rotosound RS77 Jazz Bass – Medium Scale Monel Flatwound

The Rotosound RS77 Medium Scale Monel Flatwound bass string that’s been awarded many accolades since its inception in 1966. Wound with the premium alloy Monel, Jazz Bass strings sound deeper and offer more resistance than the more commonly used stainless steel wrap.

Monel is an alloy of nickel and copper and brings to our strings the benefit of a strong tone and resistance to corrosion. The build spec remains a close kept secret but the Monel 400 tape used in Jazz Bass 77 strings brings out their true character over the much less costly flattened stainless steel.

Across the globe, players choose Jazz Bass flatwound strings for a full tone that retains its clarity. The distinctive sound and red silk ends of these strings have been revered by iconic bassists such as Roger Waters, Phil Lynott, Sting, John Deacon, Dee Murrey, and Glen Matlock.
