Reviews around tone (4.77 of 5)

  • The tone loses some brilliance over time, but not much
  • Pure nickel tone is great for my bluesy style of playing
  • Pure Nickel strings are warmer and have provided me with that classic strat tone that I have not been able to get with regular strings.
  • E (1) string broke before I could even get it half way tightened up to be in tune
  • They didn't have the warm tone on the large strings like nickel wrap strings

Reviews around product (4.42 of 5)

  • They not only replaced the bad product, they gave me extra replacements of more than the damaged strings

  • Received product fast, no damages, if you have a fender guitar and you need new strings, I suggest these

Reviews around nickel (4.38 of 5)

  • , I suppose if you want to get technical you could point out that most frets are nickel and using steel strings will wreck your frets faster, and strings are easier to change than frets
  • I just love the action, feel and sound of pure nickel strings
  • Some may like the sound of these some may like the Pure Nickel
  • E (1) string broke before I could even get it half way tightened up to be in tune
  • These are great strings and were my favorite until I found Fender Pure Nickel strings.

  • Put good string on a cheap guitar, and it sounds better.

More about Fender 3250 Super Bullets

  • Size:9-42  |  Color:Super Bullets Combine the high output and dynamic sound of steel with the smooth feel of nickel
  • Our signature Super Bullets are perfect strings for rock and other kinds of music requiring cutting guitar
  • Best of all, the patented bullet end creates a sonic coupling between the string and the bridge block, offering rock-solid tuning stability and increased sustain
  • Fender introduced its bullet-end electric guitar strings circa 1974 under the name “Super Bullets.” The new string-end design was especially well suited to Stratocaster guitars because the bullet ends fit far more precisely into the tremolo block, closely fitting the circumference of the string channel, and they slipped out easily when changing strings
  • They were available in pure nickel and nickel-plated steel versions for electric guitar and bronze-wound for acoustic guitars
  • Although Super Bullets electric strings could be used on many different guitars, they were especially popular with Stratocaster players
  • Super Bullets existed largely unchanged until the early 1990s, when Fender switched from zinc-plated steel to brass for the bullet ends
  • Brass had the additional advantage of imparting improved sustain
  • By the mid-1990s, Fender was offering pure-nickel bullet-end strings dubbed “Bullets,” nickel-plated steel bullet-end strings dubbed “Super Bullets, and bullet-end acoustic strings in bronze and phosphor bronze versions
  • Bullet-end stainless steel strings appeared in the late 1990s
  • Today, Fender continues to offer its classic bullet-end electric guitar strings in the strong, slender forms of its pure-nickel 3150 Original Bullets, which are ideal for vintage-style tone, and nickel-plated steel 3250 Super Bullets, which offer characteristic tonal power and durability.
