Anyone Try the New Fender 7150s?

I liked the old Fender 7150 strings. Not too many pure nickel rounds out there.

I don't think D'Addario (who now makes the Fender strings) has ever had a pure nickel string; I'm curious to see how they sound and feel.

I use the 7150XL's on my fretless Jazz, with DiMarzio Model J's. I like them as much as the older ones. I do miss the gold color silk wraps, but other than that-I like them

D'Addario Half-Rounds are Pure Nickel, so the company does made nickel strings. I am kinda of curious about the new 7150's....the old Mexican made 7150's were great strings.
