Rotosound RS668 Swing Bass 66 8-String Long Scale Hybrid 20 - 105 Stainless

The Rotosound RS668 Swing Bass 66 8-String Long Scale Hybrid set offers the legendary tone of the original Swing Bass 66 series in an extended format for 8-string basses. With stainless steel roundwound construction, these strings provide a bright, punchy sound with rich harmonic content—ideal for rock, metal, and high-energy styles. Developed in collaboration with John Entwistle in 1966, the Swing Bass 66 quickly became the standard for players seeking clarity, power, and definition across the full frequency range. The RS668 set features gauges from .020 to .105, making it a balanced hybrid choice for long-scale 8-string basses.

At Riffs & Licks Music, we think the RS668 delivers the classic Rotosound snap and power in a format perfect for players pushing the boundaries of low-end tone.
