Review: Great tone - Coated strings, I haven't used anything like these ever and I have been playing for 18 years. Just didn't trust something that was engineered right the first time and worked. But WOW, broke two sets of stings at a gig and my other guitars were in a different tuning Andi didn't want to mess with them. A member of another band gave me these and again WOW. Have had the same set on my JEM for two months and the tone is still very strong and in pitch. The strings are very smooth also. I have bent them vibrato them pinched them and tried very hard to break them. These are very well engineered strings and the coating is still intact. No fraying or peeling, I was a round wound user. I have even tried Maxima strings in the 90 S . you know the gold plated strings that have an amazing tone. They are now Optima, same string different name. But these Elixir coated string have a beautiful tone and feel.. Get a couple of packs and try a couple of gauges, seams like their 9s are a little beefer than Im used to using. But it could be me. Overall beer good string with beautiful tone and life. Best price I have seem also.
Review: Best Strings EVER! - These are the best strings ever. I've tried almost every string on the market, and these are by far my favorite. They sound great and last forever. Believe the hype...they really DO last FAR longer than any other strings, and they sound great while doing it. Many other strings will sound great for a short while, but as soon as they get "gunked up", they lose any brilliance and tone, and become dead sounding. Not these. They will sound great for the life of the string. In fact, the only way I know to change them eventually is not because they stop sounding good (which they don't), but because I'll start having intonation problems and I know the strings need to be changed. Normal wear and tear does that, but these strings last SO long. I've tried the polyweb strings from Elixir as well, but I didn't like those at all. To me, they didn't FEEL right. Sticky or something (not like your fingers stick to the strings, but like you could tell they were coated). With the Nanowebs, they sound AND feel like regular strings, but last forever. The only string I'll use.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How many weeks is the life about these ones? is this better d addario nyxl? i´m use ernie ball super slinky right now... worth the change?**
A: About 3 months, is the same quality as nyxl, worth the change

**Q: Excuse me, these are with 011 gauge, right?**
A: That is correct. These go from .011 to .049. Best, -Brian

**Q: what size strings would you guys recommend for a beginner that has no experience whatsoever with any kind of instrument Any answer I will appreciate**
A: The smaller the gauge, the thinner the strings are. Usually, people refer to them as "9s, 10s, 11s and sometimes 12s." That refers to the high E string (the smallest one) at 0.009mm thick, 0.10mm thick, 0.11mm etc... If you're a beginner, 9s will be the easiest to play, but you may be better off using 10s right from the start so you can build up some strength. But you don't want playing to be uncomfortable. To be honest, the best way to learn and to gain finger strength would be by playing acoustic guitar

**Q: Would the heavy ones work good on a hollow body guitar?**
A: Yah, they should. Are you upping or changing gauge? If so the heavier gauge might throw off your guitar set up. I use the 11's or 12's in standard on everything from my tele to my acoustic, so they should sound and work well. Just make sure you're set up to handle whatever gauge you throw at it.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This is why he won’t use any other strings…
*by A***H on May 2, 2026*

After 10+ years of playing professionally, my husband David Bell swears by Elixir strings. He’s tried them all, and these win every time. The tone, the feel, and how long they last. It just makes a difference. We keep them on repeat. The value is great. Installation is a breeze and the coating stays smooth.
