Well when I buy guitar strings I usually get the light only because the strings a little thinner and I like the sound. Some are thicker than others and are made out of different metals. You almost have to try them and see which ones you like. They actually all sound just a little different I’ve been playing for years now and I always seem to get the same ones because I like the sound and how they feel when I’m making the chords. Have fun!!
It’s basically the sound and the gauge, I’m into nylon strings because I play classical guitar, but my father used all of the types mentioned above because he had lots of different guitars and wanted different sounds.Answer by stratfreak13
Fender Bullets have a bullet shaped end on the string that fits better into a tremolo (like on a strat) the re and then light is just an easier gauge to play on.Answer by PJH
Like the other answer said – “bullets” have the bullet shaped end to make a more solid contact with Strat tremolos. The numbers indicate the quality of the nickel. The “original” 150 is the first type Fender made in the 50’s & 60’s. The 250’s and 350’s have more nickel, so they are supposed to be brighter longer.
