RotosoundBS66 Billy Sheehan Bass Strings
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Rotosound BS66, a Billy Sheehan signature bass set at $29.95. For players chasing a specific signature gauge combination.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Bassists who want the gauges from a signature setup rather than a stock set
- Aggressive right-hand players who want defined attack
- Someone replacing a worn set on a four-string electric bass
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players who already know their preferred gauge and want a standard set
- Acoustic or upright bass — this is for electric bass
- Anyone needing a five- or six-string set
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Bass strings
Sized for bass tuner posts and bridge spacing. Guitar sets will not substitute.
Detail 03
$29.95 per set
Above the price of a basic bass set. Cost per set matters most if you change strings frequently.
Detail 04
Four-string set
Covers E, A, D, G. A five-string bass needs a different set with a low B included.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Confirm your bass is long scale before ordering — winding length has to clear the nut
- 02A gauge change from your current set may need truss rod and intonation adjustment
- 03Set only. No winder, cutters, or setup tools included
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Will these fit my bass?
Check scale length and string count first. This is a four-string electric bass set; measure nut to saddle before ordering.
02How is this different from a standard Rotosound bass set?
It is built to Billy Sheehan's signature specification, so the gauge combination is chosen for his setup rather than as a general default.
03Do I need to adjust my bass after fitting these?
If the gauges differ from your last set, check neck relief and intonation once the strings have stretched and settled.
04Can I use these on a five-string bass?
No. There is no low B string here. You would need a dedicated five-string set.
