Man oh man, these have some tension on them.

I just fitted a new set and they pulled the relief on the neck so far that just adjusting the truss rod simply did not work because i ran out of adjustment.

Luckily i had a spacer under the Schaller 3D and had to remove it to get the string height down.  Originally i had the bridge saddles set flat ( with spacer fitted under bridge ) and with the amount of relief i like in the neck, had my perfect  setup.

With the spacer gone, i had to raise the saddles a tad.  Good grief though, how did Fender get that much tension in Nickels ?

Was it the 7250L or 7250M?

I haven't tried the 7250L but the 7250M are D'addario EXL165 with different coloured ball ends. There may be another subtle difference but they feel the same to me. I've never found them to be overly high tension.
