Bass Guitar Strings

Billy’s custom signature set using his preferred 43-110 gauges.

These strings, custom gauged by Billy Sheehan, provide the time tested, world famous, Rotosound Swing Bass set with two special advantages.

A slightly lighter ‘G’ (0.043″) this provides a more even string to string tension across the neck and makes bending easier."

"A heavier ‘E’ string (0.110″) which again provides a more even string to string tension,eliminating string ‘flap’ or ‘rattle’ and makes for a tighter low end with increased mass for more volume in the lower register."

"The (0.110″) gauge also facilitates tuning down to a low ‘D’ without the string bottoming out or loss of intonation."

- Billy Sheehan

These Billy Sheehan bass strings are manufactured from Stainless Steel wrap wire with hexagon cores.

Elixir Strings are covered with an ultra-thin, space age polymer tube that contacts the string on the tops of the windings only. This leaves the all-important winding-to-winding-to-core space free from the fear of the enemies of tone! Nanoweb coating permits strings with the feel, bright tone, and punch of traditional strings. Elixirs are the first major innovation in strings in over 40 years, and deliver what they promise: great tone and long life no matter what you put them on or how often you play. Most players report that Elixir Strings keep sounding great 3 to 5 times longer than ordinary strings.
