I have tried many diferent guitar stings on my acoustic guitars and I have to tell..Elixir Nanoweb strings are the best!

Pros: Great sound on every acoustic guitar despite the cost and the quality of the instrument.Great value for money.

I would recommend GHS Fast Fret along with these strings.

have you got more than 10 guitars?

In our studio we have about 20 guitars, that hve to be ready in a second for a gig or to record a part. Before Elixir coming was a mess. Everytime you'd need a guitar, you had to change the strings. It was costly and time losing. With Elixir we have immediately forgotten that time. Every guitar is always ready to play. From acoustic guitars to strats, lespauls, PRS, music man, etc Elixir delivers perfect sound, for months....Impressive

Will last forever

The first time I used these strings on my acoustic guitar made me feel I had upgraded my instrument to a whole other level.

The tone is fantastic, they last forever, I will keep using them again and again.

Some people say that coated strings are more dull, this is not true, once you try them you will never go back to any other brand.

Favorite strings for acoustic

Elixir has been a staple in the industry when it comes to acoustic strings for a long time. The community however is very much split in "hate 'em" and "love 'em". I am on the love 'em side. I struggled with getting that brightness I wanted out of my Taylor acoustic until I tried these. They ring, they sustain and they sound wonderful to my ears. The biggest advantage these strings have over other strings and even other coated stings, is the way the coating is applied. I really keeps the string killing gunk out of the winds. The anti rust treatment on the plain strings works wonders too. Nothing is worse that rusty plain strings. They have also eliminated a lot of the finger "squeak" that is present when using regular strings. That is, like Switzerland''s flag, a HUGE plus with me.

Best strings ever

Really. These are the best. I tried almost all of them for my acoustics, no issues to report, just satisfaction. Epic tone, really easy to bend,

nice and shiny, great slick sound when sliding. Just perfect. It'll bring out the best of your grandpa's old guitar, and your brand new Guild as well. I'll never buy any other brand ever. Price worth every cent.

Rad!

I'm a big, big fan of elixers. For someone who plays, cares how it sounds and feels, elixers are great. They're a little warmer than most, and feel a little different, but once you get used to them, you'll love em, or hate em.

Love it

How can I describe something that I love? LOVE IT. The best strings available. Does what it promises: sound quality, tone, long life. I have been using these for ten years now and won't change into anything. Worth every penny!

Great strings

I have been using Elixir strings for a long time, although they are much more expensive then other brands they indeed do last much longer than your cheaper alternatives ones.

I bought a 3 pack of martin string that cost half the price of these and I broke one of the martins on restringing. They have a rich tone and even make a cheaper guitar sound really rich and good. The coating does fade off with continued usage but it does not effect the quality of sound. I would not use anything else now.

I Highly recommend buying them and seeing for yourself, you won't be disappointed in them.

Also much cheaper here also than your local music store.

great strings

i use these stings on my takamine and they sound awesome. but especially the d-string loses the coating. the stings then still sound good, but it looks a little dirty. the price seems to be high, but i change them only about 3 times a year. all in all great strings and best value for money!

Best strings I've tried

The coatings on these strings make a huge difference. Uncoated strings can not compare with the lifetime of Elixirs. I don't play excessively, so I usually replace strings annualy. Their brightness typically starts decaying after a few months, but even after a full year, sections of the string are still untouched so they don't get completely dull.

The coating prevents dirt from building up between windings and it protects the metal from corroding, which is great because if you don't play for a while, the strings won't have corroded in the meantime.

I have rather sweaty hands, but the strings stay crisp until eventually the coating starts tearing at the section where you strum.

Right there in the middle

Perfect if you think extra light is too thin and medium is too heavy. Makes my epiphone sound great.

No competition

I have used Elixir the last 7 years and so far I have never used any better strings. No matter if you play a lot or pick up the guitar once a month this guarantees a lovely sound everytime. The only ones who should avoid it is extreme string benders who breaks strings at every gig. It still sounds great but it will be expensive.

The goretex coating keeps the strings clean and with a clear sound for much longer than other strings.
