Do the Rotosound RS66LD Swing Bass 66 strings retain their signature brightness and tone after repeated drop tuning on a long-scale 5-string bass?

The Rotosound RS66LD Swing Bass 66 strings are known for their bright, punchy sound and excellent tone clarity. While they do retain their signature brightness and tone with moderate drop tuning on a long-scale 5-string bass, repeated or extreme drop tuning may cause some loss of brightness and tension over time, as is common with most roundwound steel strings. Regular tuning back and forth can also affect string life. For best results, consider a heavier gauge if you frequently use lower tunings.

Are the Rotosound RS66LD Swing Bass 66 strings compatible with standard 34” scale basses, and do they come with silk windings at both ends?

Yes, the Rotosound RS66LD Swing Bass 66 strings are compatible with standard 34” scale basses. They do not come with silk windings at either end.
