Name this String - Need to ID

[labeledbass]

Bought this bass here, a while ago, Jazz Select ran thru body. Previous owner didn't know as well, can't contact person who did the setup either. So, Id like to change them but want to stay with the brand/series. Medium-Low tension. It looks like two purple eyelets, possibly one gold and one brass, but they could be the same color honestly. The taper at the other end doesn't match anything I've played with but I haven't experimenting too much with anything else so I figured Id give this a shot here.

Thanks in advance!

They say there is first time for everything. For all the time I spend on this forum, I have never seen those gold/purple ball ends before.

I wish I could help, but I'm clueless at this point. Sorry...

You're welcome. I have very little confidence that I'm right though. If you love the strings and wanna have more on hand than good luck with your search, but there's no reason you have to necessarily stick with the same style and gauge.

The tuner ends look a lot like Warwick strings, but I don't know if Warwick has gone to multi colored ball ends.

They look like old Warwick Reds, which were sold out at about $5-9 per pack a few years ago.BUT,, I still have an old set and they don't have the colored balls. Sort of Roto sounding strings at a steal of a price, but I think they're all gone now. Maybe the ball colors were a change from earlier or later production. If they sound similar to Rotosound, I'd bet money that they are the old Warwick's.

Warwick was the first thing that came to mind based on the way the tuner end looks, but I wasn't sure about the colored ball ends.
