Acoustic Bass Guitar Flatwound Short Scale Extra Light 4 String

[Tcheairs]

Trying to find some extra light flat wounds for my acoustic bass guitar (short scale) with an E string under .100 gauge Preferably 95 or less. LaBella 100 will not fit through my bridge. I could bore them out but I'm afraid of damage. Any ideas? Thanks

GHS Precision Flats come in short scale (32.75" ball end to taper/silk), 45-60-75-95. They don't have silk at the ball end, so the E may fit through the bridge better.
