Anyone here use short or medium scale Rotosound swing bass? Just put a set on my Hofner and the E string has some really weird overtones, wondering if these die down once the strings break in.

So, I have checked for twisted string, checked pickup heights etc, I thought maybe the string would settle down and the overtones would go but 2 days later they were still there, Google search reveals that this is a common occurrence with the short and medium scale Rotosounds, put a cut down set of long scale Rotosounds on and bam, immediate improvement
Now should I contact Rotosound about this? It sounds like it is there product rather than a bad string, I feel slightly uncomfortable about contacting a manufacturer and telling them there product sucks but I kind of feel like they need to know, not that I imagine they will redesign this string that they have been selling for years.
