5 out of 10
Feature:
The only real feature is the bullet end, which has shifted in place and caused my strings to suddenly loosen. Awful.
Quality:
They are made as Fender would like. Decent quality. Again, just poor sound.
Value:
Go get DR's instead
Sound:
Ugh. Tinny, dull, mellow, and weak.
Ease of Use:
Having to fix the bullet end constantly is annoying.

6 out of 10
Feature:
They're strings. The bullets suck though.
Quality:
Poor sound quality, and poorly designed bullet-ends.
Value:
Don't waste the money, buy some DRs or something else you like. Unless you want a really mellow sound anyway.
Sound:
These strings give a dull, somewhat muddy sound. If you want that mellow acoustic sound coming out of a good amp (say, a BitMo Trio'd Valve Junior on the right settings), these will do it; but for anything else I can't stand 'em. Actually, a set of DR Tite-fits produced a better acoustic model, and really kicks the overdrive sound nicely.
Ease of Use:
They go on, but that bullet shape at the bottom may cause minor issues. My bullets point in various directions and can shift a little, unlike normal ball-end strings when set properly.
Overall:
I'm switching these out immediately for some DR Hi-Beam Lights. I'll try some GHS Boomers too, but I really liked DR Tite-Fits.
