Fender flats with green silk

I just put a new set on a month ago. Have green silks.

 

yes i put on new fender flats yesterday they have green silk
green packaging as welll

 

Still got some fender flats on from about a year ago, still green silks now as well.

Great strings btw

 

Aren't old ones like a real blue / aqua blue?

 

... kind of hard to tell in the pic, but these seem the color that I remember from the late 60's, and what Jason is referring to ...

The new ones.
I have a set of them, yes green silks, and yes to the rainbow colored ball-ends along with the color coding on the package.

 

The old Fender flats were more of a teal green....the new ones are a bright green....I like the new ones but I think I like the old ones better.

 

The switch to the bright green and the colored ball ends happened when Fender started having their strings made by D'Addario.

 

I have a couple sets of old Fender 9050SLs and they have green silk on the ball end, and no silk on the tuner end.

 

Just put a set on my American deluxe Jazz. 1st time i've used Fender flats, and so far I like 'em Oh, and they do have the green silk.

 

You are correct the older ones had no silk on the tuner end....however the really old Fender flats (950's) had them on both ends and had teal colored silk....I've played those and really like their tone....hard to find now....I think they stopped making them in the 1980's.

 

Ah...gotcha! Yeah...like the newer old ones too!

 

Both Fender and D'addario deny that D'addario makes Fender strings. Of course, that means they do

 

(cough)

 

Does daddario make strings for Fender?
