This heavy gauge set is packed with the middle and low end that Steve demands for his style of music coupled with its silky smooth finish and tone only Monel 400 can offer.

Steve Harris sets have alternate coloured tail silks of Red/Blue/Red/Blue depicting the hues of his beloved West Ham football team.

Gauge of the beast

With such a following over many years it should not be surprising to note that Rotosound remains extremely proud of its long standing alliance with Iron Maiden by offering its Steve Harris signature set, as used by the very man himself.

“It’s all I’ve ever used”

British quality

Manufactured in the UK to precise tolerances and using only the finest materials, you can rely on Jazz Bass 77 strings for consistent tone and performance in every packet.

Every Jazz Bass string is still manufactured the ‘old fashioned way’ by hand on machines that James How built at the end of the 1960’s. 

Mighty Monel

Monel is an alloy of nickel and copper and brings to our strings the benefit of a strong tone and resistance to corrosion.

The build spec remains a close kept secret but the Monel 400 tape used in Jazz Bass 77 strings brings out their true character over the much less costly flattened stainless steel.
