Original Shubb capo, plain brass. A natural for anyone who favors a retro look.

A few years ago we upgraded the original nickel plated Shubb capo, giving it the roller design, and a more 
streamlined look and feel. But whenever you change something, some people will prefer the original. So for 
those who still want the “classic” — the original Shubb capo as it has been for over 40 years — we are continuing 
to make the ORIGINAL Shubb capo available in plain brass.

Plain, unplated brass will darken in time. For those of us who appreciate brass, we prefer this look; reminiscent 
of an old microscope, or a piece of gear from a sailing ship. But if you like your brass to shine, it can be polished 
with a cloth and most any commercial metal polish.

Since 1980 the Shubb capo has set the standard against which all others must be measured. It is the first choice 
often the only choice… of more than a million musicians worldwide. The serious guitarist will settle for no less.

Rotosound Swing Bass 66 5-String Hybrid 40- 125 Long Scale

This is the stainless steel roundwound string that James How and John Entwistle perfected into what was to become 
the industry standard. The bright, punchy, high-energy sound of Swing Bass 66 strings is a major part of early rock 
music history and brought the bass player from the back line to the front of the stage.

For the players
Inspired by the penetrating tone of legends such as John Entwistle and Chris Squire, players worldwide have strung 
up their bass guitars with Swing Bass 66 strings.
The distinctive sound of our roundwound Swing Bass 66 strings have been used by the bass-world’s biggest hitters 
such as Jaco Pastorius, Geddy Lee, Billy Sheehan, Noel Redding, Duff McKagan, and John Paul Jones. The bright red 
silk ends are hard to miss!"

A string for everyone
With so many musicians experimenting with unique gauges and drop tunings it is hardly surprising to know that Swing 
Bass Custom Box Singles, first introduced in the ’60s, enjoy more popularity now than ever before.
With such a wide range starting from 0.025" to 0.140" in increments of 0.005" there will be a gauge to suit 
everyone’s custom set."

Great British quality
Manufactured in the UK to precise tolerances and using only the finest materials, you can rely on Rotosound strings 
for consistent tone and performance in every packet.
Every Swing Bass 66 string is manufactured on custom built machines designed and built in the UK by Jason How.

Iconic music strings
This innovation continues Rotosound’s proud legacy of cutting-edge string design that started with our roundwound 
strings in the sixties.Developed in conjunction with some of the world's top artists, Rotosound strings are 
synonymous with timeless tone, longevity and rock history. Started in 1958 by James How, an engineer who made 
strings for his own instruments, Rotosound became known around the world for its superior quality products and 
famous endorsees such as Jimi Hendrix, Pink Floyd, and Queen to name just a few. The Who’s John Entwistle started 
a long partnership with James and helped develop the Swing Bass roundwound strings which have become the industry 
standard. Gathering the most prominent artists over the following decades from Jaco Pastorius to The Edge, Oasis 
to Guthrie Govan, Rotosound has been the go-to string for every music generation."
