Elixir 12050 Polyweb Light 5-stars Reviews

The best strings i have ever tried!

I have tried about 15 different pairs strings from many brands . I was never satisfied so I gave elixir a try and I can surely say that I will never buy strings from another brand again.

Very durable strings

Tried Ernie Balls, Tried D'addario string, but Elixir is way more durable. They last longer, they do not rust and just keep their tone a lot longer.

Overall the best strings I used so far.

The best strings!

Elixir in my opinion are the best strings! Last much longer than others and have a feel that I just adore! The Polyweb give me a sweet, warm tone that lasts and lasts..

Works great

Bought it for a friend ..he is very happy :D

comfortabel spelen

Wauw, fantastische klank en de coating voelt heel aangenaam aan zonder aan geluidskwaliteit in te boeten. Dikke aanrader.

Perfect for that certain Guitar.

I love these for their quiet finger response and slick handling. They also sound good both unplugged and plugged in and suit guitars where a smooth response to finger and pick attack is favoured, such as my DiMarzio powered HSH Walnut strat. In the box this set will languish until the previous set from 4 years ago finally die.

For someone like me who builds and also refurbishes vintage guitars for pleasure and has as many as 35 guitars hanging up ready to play, these strings and the other Elixirs are a real advantage. I am so grateful.

My first pair of Elixir strings and I loved it.

Great durability strings!!

Second time I use elixir strings on my electric guitar and I am totally satisfied with the sound and the durability of the strings. I have them more than a month with 2 - 3 hours practicing every day and still they last at great condition!!! The price also is great if you keep in mind that other strings in half price than elixir last less!

If you got sweaty hands, this is for you

Best strings ever. My hands sweat a lot. I tried everything, but the most common brands just wouldn't do. Ernie Ball would last a week, and D'Addario would stain since the first 2-3 hours of playing. These strings are awesome. I take good care of them, clean them and put the sticky product on every time I play (and I keep the guitar in the case at all times), I play several hours a day, and they do last for 5-6 weeks!! Not changing brand ever again.

Best strings out there?

These strings are great, they last forever!!

very good

Since 15 years i play with Elixir strings. I've never thought to try other strings. Thank you Elixir!

Long lasting, great sounding.

Use:

I use Elixers on all my guitars. Tele, PRSCU24, LP and a custom build. I gig at least once a week (twice most weeks) and practice for aprox 4 hours/week.

Pros:

They 'stretch in' really quickly and hold tuning excellently. These are lasting me for 8 or 9 gigs (as opposed to 2 gigs with Ernies or D'addies) and they still sound pretty new when I change them!

Cons:

Sound a little bit darker than uncoated strings and the coating starts to flake off (for me) after 7or 8 gigs.

Overall:

Excellent value for money on a £/gig basis. These are reliable, good quality strings and well worth the money.

Although they aren't quite as 'bright' as uncoated strings, they sound almost the same the day I take them off as they did the day I put them on. They don't go 'dead' the way uncoated strings do.

I definitely recommend trying a pack

Smooth

Nice smooth strings with excellent tone. Although they are a very light gauge they do not feel like cheese wire, they are very comfortable in use.
