Stock strings on fender basses?

Sign in to disble this ad
Hey, I'm looking to replace the strings on one of my basses, and I find that I really like the stock strings on my MIA P-Bass. I know it's some kind of Fender roundwound, but I don't know what kind. Can anyone point me in the right direction for this?

Maybe someone else can verify that.

I wondered the same thing about my MIA RW P-bass. I called Fender directly, and they verified they are the "new" versions of the 7250ML's, without the thread windings at the end.

I really, really like them too, and they're half the price of the other brands.

Yup, 8250s. .110 taper wound E string. Stock on the thru-body basses like the MiAs.
