Strings with Black Binding

[FlatEric]

Hi. I've been putting this off until now - hope someone can help.
I have various favourite strings for different basses, so I have seen
most of them but I have some strings on three different basses, that
were on when I bought them. All of the basses sound great with them
on, good balanced sound, equal volume. They have black bindings.
I have some Labella on an RD, same great sound, pinky/orange packet.
The question is, are the others likely to be the same or are there other
quality string makers using black bindings?

Hope you can help.

Cheers.

Thanks for this - not seen it before, very informative.
I shall wade my way through it.

I have basses string with Overwater, Pedulla and La Bella strings and they all have black bindings.

Lakland Joe Osborn Flats and Fender Super Bass 7250ML both have black silks
