I need some sets of short twist strings. The strings I have now have a twist extending 5/8 of an inch above the ball, which comes way too high on the finger curve. (sho-bud) A string with a 1/2 inch or shorter would work just fine. None of the manufactures advertise the twist length. Any help would sure be appreciated. Thanks, Martin.

Jerry. Only the third string is a short twist, (.011, .011.5).
