Help identify mysterious Round Wound String

This forum has previously helped me identify a string from a picture - so here I go again...

https://picasaweb.google.com/johshej...eat=directlink

The Roundwound strings in the picture look and feel like a typical Nickel Round Wound set, but the length of the silk wrapping is unusual.

This set sounds very nice, with a warm sweetness to the sound.

Any help identifying this mysterious Round Wound string will be greatly appreciated!!!

Cheers,
Johs

They look like pressurewounds, and they have red silks, so my guess is Rotosound RS55LD.

Nope... This is not a stainless steel string and not pressure wound either.

55's are green silk.

These strings in question are usually found as oem strings.
