They sounded really good, bright and well balanced but with a rich tone.  The company were amused to hear that anybody should still have strings going so far back but assured me that, several packet designs later, their new strings were still the same quality. Rotosound bass strings have a high profile world-wide which may have overshadowed their guitar strings.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eJames How, who founded the company in the fifties, engineered a new type of string-winding machine that was a step ahead of the industry and all the strings are produced to the same degree of precision.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eIn addition to the phosphor-bronze round wounds, Rotosound also make guitar strings in the piano string design.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThat is with the wrap wire stopping short of the ball end so that a section of the core wire is exposed and only the core wire comes into contact with the saddle. These strings are called ‘Country Gold’.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eIt is actually an old idea and I have a feeling that the very first steel strings used on the guitar in the 1800′s were like that.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rotosound","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53624203051274,"sku":"SB12","price":8.63,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0961\/6778\/8810\/files\/39000_39248.jpg?v=1788459739","url":"https:\/\/everestmusic.com\/products\/rotosound-super-bronze-acoustic-guitar-strings-sb12","provider":"Everest Music \u0026 Piano Centre","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
