Very good sounding, and what's important to me, they keep a fresh sound and look a looong time.

Long lasting, great tone
baouftou 28.11.2020
I use these strings on a Telecaster, set with a slightly higher action to play jazz. While i have tried many different sizes and brands i have come to a conclusion. The Elixir Nanoweb Medium bring out a great tone along with a nice punch and mids. Usually you have to make a compromise, if you do not want to change your strings very often. But these strings manage to give both a great tone but also last long. In fact they last very long. I clean them after each time i play and they usually last 3-4 months. I am really satisfied with these that i wont ever need to look for any other set.
Highly recommended!

After some 20 plus years of using D'addario strings I wanted to try coated strings and ended up trying Elixir. D'addario strings usually lasted me about a month before starting to sound dull. With about 3 hours of playing time a day. I'm a shredder, so the strings take a lot of abuse.
Elixir gives me about three times that time. They stay nice and crisp for long, keep that metallic chime to them. Are less noisy when sliding ones fingers across the strings.
So for the past 10 plus years I've been using Elixir and never once regretted switching brands. Highly recommended.

Nice and smooth with great tone
Anonymous 28.01.2023
I had these strings on my fender stratocaster and it was a joy to play it with these strings.
I am trying out strings from different brands and so far I am the happiest with Elixir electrics. I am not a fan of the acoustic strings though.

These strings need no explanation. They last me for months, have less squeak while recording, stay in tune and sound fresh and bright for a long time!

Simply the best

There is nothing to add on. It's smooth as glass, sounds like your guitar should. It is not possible to write pros and cons for that becouse it's simply great, and you don't have to change them every few months, I change every 5-6 months, so it's life saver. Use it by your self for full experience.

fret problems

These strings have the property that they last a very long time, but over time the coating on the underside of the string comes off and then damages the frets, you quickly get dented frets.

Perfect tone, long life, friendly to the fingers
mothershipmercury 19.07.2022
I should mention that at some point in my life I developed a genetic condition that irritates the skin of my fingers within 5 minutes of playing uncoated strings and made it too painful to play any stringed instrument. Long story short, it made me give up on the guitar for 3 years.
These strings allowed me to pick it up again after this long and unwanted hiatus and my psychological health and the creative neurons of my brain have Elixir to thank for that.
Most people will buy these for the long string life. There are some of us who are not able to play on any other kind of strings and the fact that these also have great sound with full body is the icing on the cake.
Hope they never stop producing this set!
