Jimmy Wess ?

A friend of mine got a pack of those strings in an exchange deal. I might be interested to get those from him, it's a roundwound nickel 5 strings sets and the gauges are more my cup of tea than his.
However, there is very little information online about this brand apart from a minimalist website. I understand they are Mexican made (I have no idea how they ended up in France). I'm sure someone somewhere already tested and have an opinion or a reference point ?

A Google search finds their website. It’s in Spanish. There are sets for sale from Mexican online vendors. Perhaps they are made in factory that Fender used for awhile for their strings (?)
