A "New Tradition" Serving Modern Sound
The Fender Classic Core strings are designed to bring the round core back to the heart of playing: a construction with a more "vintage" character than modern hex cores, while remaining perfectly comfortable on contemporary guitars. The result: a natural balance, a very accessible feel under the fingers, and a response that encourages longer playing without strain.
