Now I seen alot of posts on here about all sorts of strings but i've found hardly any about fender strings? Are they just not good at all, or what?

| | | IMHO they are very nice. Currently I'm using the 7350 stainless, and 7250 light nickel plated rounds. I've also used the flats, and original nickel rounds. Except for the heavy set of flats, I've liked them all.  |

IMHO the 7250's are very nice playing, and sounding strings, and I don't think you can go wrong with them.  |

I'd rather have some DRs. |
