First of all, don't use advice for this!  Use hooks, which are cleaner
and safer.

Second of all, setq changes the variable globally, so naturally it is
disabled everywhere.  You need to make the variable buffer-local.

(defun my-fundamental-mode-hook ()
  (set (make-variable-buffer-local 'font-lock-string-face) nil))

(add-hook 'fundamental-mode-hook 'my-fundamental-mode-hook)
