Rotosound launch Nexus coated Bass string range
British string manufacturer Rotosound has a rich history of manufacturing the best, most innovative strings in the business. The company has brought all their expertise, knowledge and experience together to launch the new Nexus coated range of strings.
After extensive research and development, Rotosound has developed a unique microscopic coating process which adds a flexible, protective, black coating to the new Nexus range of strings. The special black polymer coating helps prevent contamination and corrosion, significantly extending the life of the strings. It is silky smooth to the touch and most importantly produces a tone that has to be heard to be believed.
The bass strings have a black polymer coat set over a Type 52 pure nickel alloy wrap. This gives rich mid-tones and offers an alternative to steels with high presence. The gauges available are 40, 60, 80 and 100, and 45, 65, 85 and 105. A single Low B (130) will also be available for five string bass players.
Also available are the Nexus Acoustic sets are clear polymer coated wound, gold series plain strings with a phosphor bronze base. This gives enriched highs and gentle mid-tones and comes in three gauges: 10s, 11s and 12s. In the electric range new Nexus strings also have a black polymer coating over nickel alloy. This adds a lot of warmth compared to conventional nickel strings. There are two sets available here: 9s and 10s.
With fifty years of heritage and legions of fans worldwide, Rotosound take great care to ensure it’s strings live up to the Rotosound reputation. All the strings are manufactured using the finest quality raw materials and made to the strictest quality control standards. EVERY string is hand checked for consistency of winding, colour, feel and general quality before being passed, and only then is it worthy of carrying the Rotosound name.
The new Nexus range is available now and is currently being used by top professionals such as Pink’s bass player Eva Gardner.
