Can anyone please please tell me what bass strings have a fabric end wrap that is gold in color? These strings are round wound, brass ball end, and have a very bright sheen (nickle? stainless?). Any help incredibly appreciated.

THANKS!

Fender Pure Nickel maybe?

You are quite welcome. Do you have some that you like? I actually just bought a set and am waiting to put them on my bass.

Yeah--the 7150 M strings are killer, IMO. Nice gague, good snap, wide range of tone. I'm beginning to suspect they don't last super-long under hard play, but what does?
