Bought a bass and need to ID its strings

I bought a Jazz bass, and the strings that were on it have gold-red-black-green ball ends for EADG, no silks, just tapered ends, and if they are rounds, they are the smoothest rounds I’ve ever played. They feel like a light gauge, .100 at most for the E.

Going by the ball end colors, I’m guessing D’Addario. They aren’t as smooth as La Bellas, but they sound more like flats than they do rounds. Without silks and given their flexibility, I can’t really put them in the flats category entirely. Do I have D’Addario’s half rounds?

I don’t care for them on the Jazz, but they sound more than decent on my P bass. Not sure if they are a lock for me yet, but it would be nice to ID them in case I sell them.

 

A couple at the bridge and the nut. When I first played them, I thought Elixir because they were so smooth I figured they were coated (I’ve never played Elixirs, so maybe I’m mistaken). For comparison, they are much smoother than Hi Beams/Sunbeams, and similar to the texture and tactile feel of TI Jazz flats, but stiffer.

 

Thanks. It’s hard to imagine any rounds being this smooth. The reviews for these seem pretty meh, but to my ears, they aren’t half bad.

 

I’ve read a few that describe them as an uninspiring compromise betwixt rounds and flats. I suppose the negative perspectives always stand out from the positive ones...or maybe I’m just inclined toward pessimism this week.

But with my two cents in hand, I happen to like them on my P bass.

 

I rather like them. Even if they don’t stay on the Precision, I’ve got a kit-Ric project long overdue for completion, and I imagine these sounding nice on it.

 

They sound better than they feel. Kind of a weird tackiness under the fingers. I still think the faux Ric could be a good match, but I dunno.
