Once you play elixirs, you never go back

What to say? Maybe not the cheapest or best sounding string, at least in my opinion, but by far the longest lasting. I play 7-8 wedding gigs in two months and it still sounds new. The price may be steep, but when you factor in how long they last, they are practially the cheapest string!

Elixir is always a good choice

Been playing for more than 10 years now and I tested lots of guitars and strings. Elixir are by difference the strings I like the most for its sound, durability and resistance to corrosion.

Great tone, lasts long

I buy Elixir bass strings for a long time now and I really love their sound and the fact that i don't need to change the strings for longer periods of time cause the sound stays good

My go to strings

Actually i prefer 40-125 but you can't find those these days. They last a long time. Initially they don't have that zing of regular strings, but they stay fresh for months. For players that are gigging a lot, and can't afford regular fresh strings every 2 weeks, this is the solution.

Strings that last

I've tried many different brands of strings and this are my favourites by a long run. Extremly bright and the brightness lasts for few weeks. Definitely worth buying these!

No Contest

These strings are on another level. Soundwise they have a measured, and round/warm brightness, but their secrret weapon is they they keep their brilliance for a long time, even in the tropics where I live, with the high humidity, and extra propensity to sweat, the coating keeps them alive for months longer than you would expect from other strings.

Simply Amazing Strings

i recently discovered this brand and i am now completely in love with it. I used to have Flatwounds because roundwounds were buzzing too much but overtime i missed the drive - flatwounds are too laid back- what i found with Elixir is that they are very well balanced. they sound deep and clean at the same time and very nice highs ! really recommend to try and see for yourself!

Has not let me down yet

I love using elixirs for every stringed instrument I have! I love the feel and sound. Amazing for the gigging musician if you do not like to change your strings every week.

I never use anything else

Have been using Elixir bass strings exclusively since 2001, due to the longevity of their sound. Especially good if, like me, you have somewhat sweaty palms. I used to "kill" a set of bass strings in one night's gig before switching over to Elixir - but have had no problems since; I now change strings when they're old and I fear they will break - they still sound great at that point though.

Made me fall in love with my bass

Last February I purchased a Harley Benton PJ-75 OW Vintage Series. I was really not connecting with the instrument but then I decided to try changing the strings. These strings made me completely fall in love with the bass. They feel much tighter in a good way. The b string rings much clearer. And the sound is just the right amount of bright. I hope they last as long as everyone says they do. Great investment in my honest opinion.

Strings that last and last

These strings do cost significantly more than many other options, but only in the short term. The consistency of tone over not just months but years is seriously impressive. I have to buy the extra top C for my 6 string bass making it quite an investment, but I?d be paying so much more in an attempt to keep the tone up to scratch with any other make. I usually get a few years out of a set of these.

It could be that the sound of very new strings is not what you are after (not sure how you keep tone consistency in that case, not somewhere I?ve aimed for) you might get frustrated with how well these keep their sound.

It is also possible you play constantly with a pick, and this could wear the coating quicker in that area of the string, but you?d still get way more string life. I only use a pick on a few songs for effect, vast majority is finger playing.

Summary: If you want a lasting clear tone, these are the strings to get.

Perfect strings for your bass!

I use Elixir strings on bass since I started back in the days. For this price, these strings last really really longer that the others, without losing their brightness.

Worth the extra money!

I've been using Elizir for a while now. They do last at least 3 x as long and sound good too. I hate changing strings, so for me they are ideal.

Beware of fake Elixirs though, some floating around on auctio sites !
