Fender 0730250408- SUPER 250’S NICKEL-PLATED STEEL GUITAR STRINGS BALL END Gauge 11 – 49

The same strings Fender puts on its electric guitars – in a fuller medium gauge. Fender Super 250’s strings combine the high output and dynamic sound of steel with the smooth feel of nickel. This 250M set (.011-.049, part 0730250408) suits any style, and especially rock, blues and other music that needs a cutting, articulate tone.

Why customers choose it

• Fender’s own choice: Super 250s are fitted on all Fender electric guitars when they leave the factory, and are Fender’s best-selling guitar strings.
• Balanced sound: nickel-plated steel gives strong output with a smooth feel.
• Bright and quick: hex core construction gives more brightness and a faster pick attack.
• Fuller tone: medium .011-.049 gauges give a thicker sound and more tension than light sets.
• Easy string changes: ball ends in classic Fender colours.

Who it is for

Electric guitarists who play blues, rock and jazz and want a fuller, heavier set; players who tune down; and anyone restringing a Fender with factory-type strings.
