Best ones so far!

I used to go with strings from Fender but wanted to try Elixir for a while. They sound amazing and don't rust a quickly as other one I tried.

Classic pick for acoustic

Elixirs are a classic choice for acoustic guitar. They have a long life and feel great to play. For me, this set was a bit brighter than I'm used to, but I like really warm strings for acoustic.

I have to say un coated sound a bit clearer to me, however these strings will last 4 times longer than standard. The coating will flake off over time just where you strum. A good product and if your going to try coated strings these are the ones to start. Also think that the coating will make the string seem a small bit thicker than the normal gauge due to the coating.

One of the best.

Of all the different acoustic strings I've tried out Elixir is one of the best. A really great sound, very crisp. They're slightly on the expensive side as compared to others but I would say that they are worth it.

Long lasting, good sound

I've been using the Elixir Nanoweb strings for quite a while now. Before, I've been using regular, uncoated strings which - regardless of the brand - lost their initial tone after a few days and started to corrode quickly. The Elixir stings keep their tone much longer, almost until the end. The tone is a bit on the bright side but that suits me well. The strings are rather expensive but last at least three times longer in my experience so there is no such big difference in cost in the end.

Good strings!!!

First of all I would rate them 5 stars if they wouldn't "ring" that loud on the first few gigs... After all kinds of reviews, I just decided to use a guitar for a while and play it before the first gig, after which they sound very good, and are "user friendly". I use them on Yamaha APX 500, I gig a lot and just don't see a better option for the money.

Great string for acoustic guitar

I've used Martin strings for years just because they sounded good. Never done much comparison.On my Taylor guitar, the strings sounded great and intoned well. I was very pleased with them. But in my low cost Takamine the sound is awersome, not so good. I prefer use the martin strings.

My advice would be this- don't be afraid to experiment with these but be prepared for them to sound totally different on different guitars. But for me- when they sound this bad on one guitar I can't help but think they're holding down my guitar that's just got the boom to overcome it. I'll probably just go back to playing Martins on everything.

For the durability, I love these strings. Especially if you have a Taylor because these are the strings that they currently use in manufacturing. They're more expensive but yes, they actually last 2 or 3 times as long as other strings I've used. They stay in tune well and have a bright yet full tone. Recommended
