I'll take them if they're steel or nickel as long as they are round.

edit: When you say 34" scale does that mean they won't fit a 35" scale? Most strings have more than enough extra slack so I've never had an issue with it before. Never bought Sadowsky strings, but I'm looking to try something other than DR for the first time in a few years.

I got dibs if everything else collapses. It's worth a shot.

The blue string wrapped around the ends of the strings will extend past the nut if you stick these on a 35" scale bass. They're strictly for 34" basses.

How do they compare with DR HiBeams?

It's been a while since I've played DR High Beams but IIRC the black label Sadowsky strings are closer to them in tone. They have more tension than the DR's do, since they're hexcore but they are a little slinkier than the black labels. I think the blues are easier on the fingers than the DR's. They seem a bit softer. Like I said though, it's been a while since I played the High Beams.
