Any idea what strings these are?

[Big Bass757]

Long story but can any one tell what strings they are?

Invisible?

Invisible?

Sorry new here.

Long story but can any one tell what these flat wound strings are?

The third pic is blurry. Are those silks black or blue? Any silk at the ball ends? What color(s) are the ball ends themselves?

Yes they are blue. Sorry for picture quality.

Yes they are blue. Sorry for picture quality.

Ball ends... Are they colored?

 

[Big Bass757]

Yes, blue as well. Perhaps La Bella mediums?

 

[michael_t]

Yes, blue as well. Perhaps La Bella mediums?

You mean blue silk at the ball end as well? I asked what color(s) are the ball ends themselves - all brass? All silver? Or, different colors?

La Bella flats only have silk at the tuner end with no silk at the ball end.

 

[Obese Chess]

blue silk on both ends would be EB Cobalt Flats, I believe.

 

[Jaco who?]

GHS brite flats - maybe.

 

[Stan_da_man]

Or Chromes.

 

[Fernando Costa]

Ball end color please.

 

[michael_t]

EB Cobalt Flats = purple silk, not blue.
EB Stainless Steel Flats = blue silk at both ends with brass ball ends.

 

[michael_t]

Or Chromes.

This is why I asked about the ball end colors earlier. If they're in fact D'A Chromes, which have blue silk at both ends, they would also have color-coded ball ends, gold-red-black-green (E-G).

Still waiting for the OP's response on that.

They look more purple than blue to me. Could be Optima RB flats.

I vote chromes. Some of the newer chromes have a different shade of blue, so the shade isn't relevant. Chromes are a lot more popular than the EBs, so just going by frequency...

they do look a little purple, now that you mention it.

The OP hasn't responded to my earlier question about the ball end color(s). If they're color-coded, then we'll know for sure they're the D'A Chromes.

Look to me like they might be Half Rounds. You can see what looks like grind/polish marks and definition in between wire wraps.

The only bass strings I have ever had that shade of blue were Sadowsky. They also had the same color at the ball end about one inch long.
