Dunlop Flatwound Users - Help Needed 🙂

[HoorayForAnonyms]

Hoping any current Dunlop Flatwound users might be able to help me with this. 
 

I recently put on a new set of the Dunlop Flatwound Short scale on my Fender Mustang but the silks at ball end are sitting on top of the saddles and causing some chorusing and intonation issues.

Strangely, this new set replaces an identical older set of Dunlop Flatwounds I bought in 2018 when they were first released. The silks on the older set are shorter than the new set and didn’t sit on top/over the saddles like these new ones.

 

Im wondering if I received a faulty set or if all the newer strings now come with this longer silk as standard. 
 

If anyone has a newish set currently on their bass, could you measure the silk length at the ball end? It would be so helpful in making a decision to order another set in the future. 

Thanks in advance! 
 

I’ve also reached out to Dunlop via their website twice and waiting on hopefully a reply soon.
