    Hello everyone, I'm looking for a brand of strings that were on a archtop Hofner 4550. They have a not quite standard gauge.

    1str- 0.11
    2str - 0.14 (perhaps 15)
    3str - 0.21 (perhaps 0.20)
    4str - 026 ( perhaps 0.27)
    5str- 0.34
    6str- 0.43 (perhaps 0.44)

    Special signs:

    Brass strings
    Silk is under the winding
    Round core
    Black silked ball ends.

    I would be happy if someone could tell me what kind of strings they are and where to get such a gauge ... maybe assemble from 2 sets? Or order each string separately from the manufacturer?

    Thanks everyone!

    Pyramid strings have black silk at the ball end.

    Thank you very much. I thought about them, but I could not find such string gauges in their line.. the search continues))
