Nickel Plated Steel

elixir are the best strings in my 40+ years playing guitar - these solved several issues:1.quality of sound of an ordinary uncoated strings goes down rapidly - but not with these - I had 0.13 gauge phosphor bronze stringson for almost 3 years - they never went muddy2.I am not a pro and I don't have a guitar technician - so for me changing strings every week or two was up to me and I have 10 guitars3.so I am buying about 3 packs a year instead of 20 - 304.it is a big time and money and hassle saverand that is why I've been using these strings for more than 15 years now...they sound great and for very long timethe only complaint could be that they are not unbreakable....they do break exactly as any other strings,but because it is usually top E string,just get a few cheap spares and that's it

Good quality smooth and good tone. Don't tarnish

I've experimented but gone back to these. They sound as good as the NYXL on my Novo and last way longer. My Mastery bridge was creaking and now it isn't. Some of that is likely due to the reduced friction from the coated strings.

Elixir the best !!!

I Used these on my acoustic for Fingerstyle and have also used the electric version with a pick.THE GOOD+ much longer lasting than uncoated string+ clear bright sound+ natural feel with no stickiness+ no black fingers as with uncoated stringsTHE BAD- coating frays over most used areas of fretboard- coating frays over soundhole where plucked by fingers (also frays on my electric where I use a pick)- expensive.So far I still prefer these for acoustic, but have moved over to optiwebs on electric (great tone, no fraying,quieter under fingers)as they sound slightly better and last longer. It’s a shame optiweb aren’t available for acoustic...If you have found this review helpful, please could you click the ‘Helpful’ button below. Thank you.

I've been using Elixir strings exclusively for just over a year now, so I think I now have enough experience with them to write an accurate review. Here are some of the benefits I've found:- Longevity (obviously) and reliability:for me, Ernie Balls need to be changed every 4 days or so. D'Addarios are a bit better at around once per week. With the Elixirs I generally only have to change them once per month, and even then they don't lose their tone as much as other strings do, they tend to just get a little 'dull' sounding after that point. Its also worth mentioning that they stay in tune well and they don't corrode like uncoated strings.- Playability:these strings have a slippery feel to them that doesn't really go away. I love this because I feel it gives me better mobility, but if you're not used to it, it might cause you to 'overshoot' your slides. This could be contentious so bear it in mind.- Sound:I've heard criticisms levelled at the sound quality of Elixir strings before, which is why I was initially hesitant to try them. Honestly though, I think they're the best sounding stings I've used; they have a very balanced, clear tone that I really like. Every string outputs the same volume, which is something I don't feel I get with the other brands I've used (though obviously this depends on your pickups).I know that what I've written here sounds more like an advertisement than a review, and I DO usually try to keep my reviews as balanced as possible, but I honestly can't think of anything negative to say here.

The Elixir Nanoweb strings are a life saver in some respects. They are coated so they last for a very long time. This can be handy when you're pushed for time (re-stringing 3 guitars with Floyd Rose bridges can be hairy and time consuming), or if you're half way through the month and don't have much cash. Having strings that last longer is a life saver in that respect. Apparently Elixir released Polyweb strings, strings that allegedly could last forever.So what about the tone? The tone is great! I find Fender nickel strings (not nickel plated) are the best strings I have heard in terms of tone, and they are my favourite strings. But you know what. I stock up on these Elixir bad boys, because the tone is passable, they last longer, and hey I've been lazy. I haven't changed the strings on my main guitar for three months. They aren't even rusty yet! These strings really are that good. Although in the interest of honesty, if I was performing with a band, or knew I was going to be jamming out with some friends, I would probably use Fender nickel strings, because they're my absolute favourite in terms of tone.

Everything is fine. I am satisfied. Thank you.

Cordes de bonne qualité. Leur revêtement peut étouffer très légèrement la brillance des aigus au goût de certains mais il apporte une protection efficace contre la corrosion (la sueur peut en effet accélérer ce processus).

Struny otrzymałem rozpakowane, wiec nie wiem czy w środku znajduje się ten produkt który zamówiłem

Cordes Elixir originales. Parfaitement conforme.

張って何ヶ月も錆びません。下手したら一年以上替えていないギターもあります。それくらい長寿のど定番です！一生使い続けます。

Håller länge
