But the catch is that they have to have a double ball. Anyone know of strings like this? Just strings had GHS, LaBella, Steinberger and Rotosound. The Steinbergers died out fast for me, anyone know how the other brands are or have any other recomendations?

"These precision bass strings are NOT simply another
company's strings, re-packaged, with yet another label on the outside.
We have taken time to develop a unique range of strings to cater for any playing style.
All our stings are HAND-WOUND here in the UK.
All round, flat and half-wound strings are made from the finest stainless steel.


SINGLE-BALL STRINGS :
The range consists of Long, Medium and Short scale options.


LONG SCALE
Available as Premium Round-Core or Regular Hex-Core.
Round-wound, half-wound, flat-wound, vintage black nylon or bronze acoustic strings all feature in the range.
They all have a 'speaking' length of 950mm ( 37 3/8" ) which makes them suitable for
most extra-long 35"+ scale basses and regular 34" basses with through-body stringing.
(Please check length to make sure they will work on your bass).

MEDIUM SCALE
Round-wound, half-wound, flat-wound or vintage black nylon strings are available.
They have a 'speaking' length of 882mm ( 34 3/4" ) which makes them suitable
for most 32" scale basses.
(Please check length to make sure they work on your bass).

SHORT SCALE
Round-wound, half-wound, flat-wound or vintage black nylon strings are available.
They have a 'speaking' length of 832mm ( 32 3/4" ) which makes them suitable
for most 30" scale basses.
(Please check length to make sure they work on your bass).

DOUBLE-BALL STRINGS :
Round wound, half-wound, flat-wound and vintage black nylon strings are all available.
All are hand-wound and manufactured to the industry standard double ball string length
of 908mm (35 3/4") between the inside of each ball-end.
They will work perfectly on all Steinberger and many other headless basses.

BULK ORDERS
Bulk orders have a saving of around 20% and are available
in Round-wound single-ball Premium Round-Core, Hex-Core and Double-Ball.
