Pros
There is no feedback when sliding which is a plus from the regular strings i’ve played in the past. Many people shopping for strings have 1000’s invested in guitars, amps, pedals and much like the idea of putting go kart tires on a ferrari to ‘save a ... Read More
The mantra i would always hear is ‘buy the cheapest strings you like and change often’. Tone valued around octaves on my eight string. If anyone is new to changing your guitar strings and has not tried elixir strings, i heartily recommend this brand.
Polyweb vs nanoweb. The nanowebs are a little brighter which is nice for cleans but i prefer the warmth of the polyweb for distorted tones. As far as feel is concerned, nanoweb feels closer to an uncoated string.
Cons
Tension is way off coming from d'addario strings. I seriously question the extra longevity claimed. Evidently high e string was used, wrapped back up, placed back into packaging, returned and sold to me.
Highlights
Quality
Excellent product, i really recommend it, excellent seller
Just what i needed, always a quality brand!
They don’t have an unusual feel with the coating on them
Price
Too new to rate much but price is right, so it is hard to complain.
Competitiveness
This is my third purchase of elixer strings.
Polyweb elixir -- best strings on the market .
So i took a risk and put on these elixer acoustic strings.
