Nanoweb Custom Light : Perfect strings for Fender scale lengths

9 years ago

I use these strings on all of my 25.5" scale length guitars. This includes Harley Benton Strats, Teles and Jazzmasters.

They give enough slinkyness on the high strings to bend easily and enough tautness on the low strings to stay intonated and in-tune down to Drop D tuning.

The coating means I only have to change strings once a year and they are great for recording as they maintain a consistent tone throughout.

I've tried other big brands' coated strings and in my experience they never have the clarity or longevity of Elixers.

I have found you can get a tad more fret buzz as the strings remain live for so long (normal strings seem to settle down after a few hours).

I've used around 10 sets of these and only had one string break during that time.

Highly recommended!
