missing string!

[lowdowner]

Just opened a new pack of Rotosound 66's to put on my bass and lo and behold, there's no 'E' string! There *is* an 'end' of the string in the envelope, but that's it! What on earth is going on?

*tut*

Didn't Tony Levin used to play with just 3 strings? Mind you, I think it was the bottom 3 that he used. Still, you could break new ground by just playing with the top 3!

Send them an E-mail, Rotosound have brilliant customer service.

An Internet buy, no strings attached..? You're lucky there were the other 3, then...

Metal-munching ones? Now that sounds rather scary...

What they breed them just to eat bass strings!
Now I am scared lol

Maybe someone wanted to make a garotte for killing elephants? Roto 66's E sound like a perfect string to make it.

But, seriously, what others said: call them and they'll probably replace it with sincere apologies.

Use it for silent notes.

It's the legendary tacet string

[ras52]

Instead of the string, did the pack contain the keyboard player's left-hand little finger?

I think it should be used for ghost-notes

[BILL POSTERS]

Send em back, get a refund and buy some decent strings. I gone right off Rotos, even the free set, which came direct are not like they used to be.
