Elixir .009 Plain Steel Single String

Best Strings

Best strings for me.! I use them many years and somethimes buy another brand for test but everytimes i return to Elixir!

Exactly what you'd expect

This is quite literally exactly what you'd expect, we are all here because we were either putting on new strings or enjoying our new strings a little too hard and snapped one.

Great strings

Not much to say. This are my strings for many years now, they last a lot, specially on humid climate.

As expected

Good exchange if you ever break an Elixir

Elixir Plain Steel

Excellent strings for acoustic guitar.

Perfect for aggresive sweat

They sound awesome and they don't corrode as easily as other brands. The price may be a bit on the higher end but is definitely worth it if your sweat is rusting other brands in a week. Amazing in general.

Nothing exceptional

I've bought couple of Elixirs of various light gauge as spare strings and for some experimenting with custom set. I was curious about it and Ernie Ball singles are available only as sets of six (which would take years for me to spent).

Anti-rust plain steel Elixirs are packed quite crude in paper sleeve and in my opinion are nothing exceptional, maybe even slightly worse in sound. Their price is higher than d'Addario's singles, but this difference doesn't matter. For the durability I have to wait, I don't play guitar intensively.

Elixir

I use these strings for a long time now. And they are the only strings that do not rust or lose any tone for a long time.

The strings feel less loose than the other brands, though. It almost feels like gage 010.

It is absolutely worth the money if you have troubles with rusting strings.

Must have these as spare strings!

Very good quality. Grab few and keep close in "ups" situations!

best spare

best spare string ever.
