Ok cheap string but not my favourite
I got these strings for a P-bass. They are very similar to D'Addario XLs (in fact they're manufactured by D'Addario for Fender) but with a bit more powerful low mids than the XLs. Which makes all the difference for me. I absoutely detest XLs but I kinda like these Fender 7250s once they're broken in. I don't particularly like their sound out of the box though. Like D'Addarios they sound very clanky. It's not that I don't like bright strings, it's just that these are bright in all the wrong places. Clank rather than crisp.
Once they're broken in (some would probably say dead...) I kinda like them though. They develop this "spongy" sound that I simply don't get with any other strings.
Definitely not my favourites (I prefer various types from Pyramid, TI and Rotosound) but their broken in sound offers something I enjoy on a P-bass.
They last reasonably long. Not the best, not the worst. Pretty much average in that regard. Which is ok with me as I prefer them kinda dead.
They're very cheap and pretty good strings on a budget. Certainly a lot better than certain ultra cheap "in house" brands I've tried.
These strings are also the stock strings on every Fender bass from Squier to Custom Shop so for a lot of people this is how an electric bass is supposed to sound. If you're one of those people these strings are of course an excellent choice. But for anyone willing to experiment: In my opinion there are far better bass strings out there.

Fender 7250M Strings
Surprisingly good. I bought these strings as a secondary option for my p-bass that was mainly being used at home. When my jazz bass shorted out i had to use the p-bass and couldn't belive the tone i got on the gig. Once these strings are played in and are in the 'sweet spot' they sounded great! They have a lovely feel and are not too coarse as some other cheaper stings can be. they stayed on my bass for 6 months and i got about 25-30 gigs out of them. Highly recommended.

Great bass strings for the allround player
Fair price and durability. I use those for blues, rock and some funky tones.

As cheap replacement - strings are ok
Original Fender bass - original strings. That was the idea. But the sound does not like me. Dull and unclear. But after all the strings are individually wrapped. I prefer to take back the more expensive DR Low Rider ... As cheap replacement strings are ok. The strings are quickly dull and lose their brilliance.

Fender 725M bass strings
Fender 7250M bass strings gives the high output and dynamic sound and smooth feel. Perfect for rock, funk, and other styles of music where the bass needs to cut through.

I bought a Fender Roger Waters Signature Bass about one year ago and love these strings that came stock with the bass. I practice 5-6 hours per week and they still sound great with more life left than I could have imagined at this point.
