Pros & Cons
Pros
Taylor and ibanez guitars come pre strung with elixirs. Taylor and takamine are my work horses. They get played daily whether rehearsing, recording, or performing.
These sound great on my small bodied, short scale om guitar. Yes they get a little flaky where the pick strikes the strings.
Cons
The elixer a string fails between the first and second fret. The coating on these strings completely nullifies any of the string technology itself.
Highlights
Quality
These are nice and smooth and the sound quality is much much better.
Yes, they cost more, but you save money with the longevity.
But no it actually is guitar strings and very good quality.
Packaging/appearance
No issues at all other than the packaging.
Packaging was a bit damaged but i dont mind.
Competitiveness
I've been reluctant to buy elixir strings due to the price when compared to other brands, but i have to admit they are worth the price.
Going to restring my taylor and ibanez guitars next with elixirs.
