Rotosound was started in the late 1950s by James How, a musician and engineer by trade. How started manufacturing music strings for many famous artists across the world. As of 2022 It was still a family-run business, making all Rotosound strings in England.​​

Rotosound's most famous string set, the RS66 Swing Bass, was first produced in 1966. John Entwistle of The Who came to the Rotosound factory looking for an even-sounding, heavy, roundwound bass string. Entwistle spent the afternoon there, trying string after string before settling on a set that would become known as Swing Bass 66. A fake jingle for Rotosound can be heard on The Who's album The Who Sell Out, immediately preceding "I Can See for Miles".
