Fender matched the great tuning stability of their patented Bullet end with their Super 250s to create the ultimate strings for modern trem players. The German-machined Bullet end is designed to fit precisely in the tremolo block to ensure that the string returns to the same spot even after heavy tremolo use. The end of your tuning problems could be on the end of these strings! Learn More...

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.

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.

Feature:
My strings came preloaded from the factory on my American Deluxe Stratocaster, so nothing else came with the strings.
Quality:
The strings look awesome!! Shiny chrome color on even the low strings at 4,5 and 6! Playability is top notch.
Value:
Strings are worth as much as Ernie Ball, yet give way more for your buck in sound and looks.
Desirability:
I haven't seen better looking strings in all 7 and a half years of my time as a skilled guitarist. They are shiny chrome looking, much better than the gray steel look of other brands.
Sound:
Bright
Ease of Use:
Before I always used Ernie Ball strings, but now that I have touched these super bullet strings, I'm in heaven. The strings feel as if they have been polished and waxed already. Very comfortable and sliding is as easy as breathing.
Support:
Never needed help with them, but if you are switching gauges, adjusting the truss rod and bridge sound troublesome.
Overall:
Absolutely worth it's price, I consider these strings the top of the market.
