Affordable
For years i spent too much money on my strings. Always used Elixirs and Tomastiks which are great! Only recently found out there are options which deliver a sound just as good as the former two. This 3 pack Fender strings cost the same as one set of them. Great sounding & feeling strings....hope they last quite some time...

Fantastic,underrated vintage inflectioned strings.
I used these when they came in packs with a headstock on the cover but when production shifted to Mexico thought they became more brittle and were short lived.I kept swapping between Ernie Ball,which felt heavier/stiffer and D'Addario which broke too easily.
When I noticed these were being USA made again I tried a set and have been using them since.I wouldn't be surprised if they were being made for Fender by D'Addario(those coloured ball ends) but the plain strings are not breaking at all,unlike the Dads.
Right now I think they are the best sounding strings at the vintage end of the spectrum available...
I find them just nicely bassier on the wound,with a feeling of mass about them but a nice pliable feel overall.... and they seem to last and last both tonally and physically....great both clean and driven...with all sorts of pickups...Fender,including Jazzmaster and original Widerange,Gibson Shaws,Minis,Dirty Fingers and vintage P90's...
A really good value string for those who prefer a more vintage toned sound....

Nice Surprise
Had never used Fender strings before, but I definitely was happy I tried them. The sound coming out of my guitar had a fresh life. I'll keep using them.

Good value
These 3 packs are very useful. They provide very good quality strings at a competitive price. I use these strings on a Gretsch Electromatic. They are long lasting and stay in tune well.

My favourite strings.
I started using these five years ago or so after starting on Ernie balls then switching to roto sound which I really liked and used nothing else for a few years. I placed a large order with thomann and decided to give these a try they were good value then and their good value now. What do I like about them? They perform like other premium strings but they don't cost as much, their durable, they sound great and they'll last a while at least for me anyway. I'm a bit of a tight wad however I'm not willing to compromise with strings, my experience with them once was enough to convince me you buy cheap you but twice usually.
A comment on thomann service..
When I'm planning on spending a few quid I'll consider thomann although I live in the UK they're delivery times and packaging are fantastic I've never really had any problems so i haven't used the customer service however they offer everything I'm looking for.. Security, trust, return policy etc. The website is very good the reviews are really helpful and their prices and service are as good as I've experienced anywhere.
I've ordered two guitars on the strength of the website reviews and the many you tube videos reviewing their products and my previous experience with thomann.

Industry standard
Not much to say - great strings, as good as any other brand. Seem to "stay fresh" a little longer than Ernie Balls.

Just great
After playing many brands I put Fender nickel 150's on a Strat and really like them. Seem easier to bend and vibrato. Good tone.
They are now my go-to strings.
