Who makes the string with a short wind/longer twist that seems to work well with the S~B type changer, especially the heavier gauges. Like this:

Nope, the pic is of an old string I saved from years ago. I just bought my first set of Live Steel Strings however and am anxious to try them but don't see the lead or twist after the wrap before the ball/collar that this particular set has.

Just be sure to put the flat side down so it lays more flush against the finger. I also like the shorter twist on the plain strings. I think they are going to be my string of choice for some time to come.
