Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

Fender Classic Core 3255L is a light-gauge electric guitar string set with nickel-plated steel construction, bullet ends, and vintage-spec round core wire. Rather than using a modern hexagonal core, this design is described as delivering expanded lows, softer treble, and extra bend flexibility. The .009 through .042 gauge selection suits players looking for the Classic Core approach in Fender’s light set for modern guitar.
