Great strings good value for money

Good quality smooth and good tone. Don't tarnish

Elixir are a good brand and they do probably last longer than some other brands. But I don't think there for me, I bought them because I'm lazy when it comes to changing strings so i wanted something that would last. But I'm not keen on these strings so I'm changing them only having used them for 2 weeks. Plus side, delivery was really fast, I got them the next day!

The smoothest and best wearing strings. Mid-level gauge so not too thick or thin and handle lots of note bending when it matters. Cheapest price around without compromising on quality.

I've been using Elixir strings exclusively for just over a year now, so I think I now have enough experience with them to write an accurate review. Here are some of the benefits I've found: - Longevity (obviously) and reliability: for me, Ernie Balls need to be changed every 4 days or so. D'Addarios are a bit better at around once per week. With the Elixirs I generally only have to change them once per month, and even then they don't lose their tone as much as other strings do, they tend to just get a little 'dull' sounding after that point. Its also worth mentioning that they stay in tune well and they don't corrode like uncoated strings. - Playability: these strings have a slippery feel to them that doesn't really go away. I love this because I feel it gives me better mobility, but if you're not used to it, it might cause you to 'overshoot' your slides. This could be contentious so bear it in mind. - Sound: I've heard criticisms levelled at the sound quality of Elixir strings before, which is why I was initially hesitant to try them. Honestly though, I think they're the best sounding stings I've used; they have a very balanced, clear tone that I really like. Every string outputs the same volume, which is something I don't feel I get with the other brands I've used (though obviously this depends on your pickups). I know that what I've written here sounds more like an advertisement than a review, and I DO usually try to keep my reviews as balanced as possible, but I honestly can't think of anything negative to say here.

elixir are the best strings in my 40+ years playing guitar - these solved several issues: 1.quality of sound of an ordinary uncoated strings goes down rapidly - but not with these - I had 0.13 gauge phosphor bronze strings on for almost 3 years - they never went muddy 2.I am not a pro and I don't have a guitar technician - so for me changing strings every week or two was up to me and I have 10 guitars 3.so I am buying about 3 packs a year instead of 20 - 30 4.it is a big time and money and hassle saver and that is why I've been using these strings for more than 15 years now...they sound great and for very long time the only complaint could be that they are not unbreakable....they do break exactly as any other strings, but because it is usually top E string,just get a few cheap spares and that's it

Not happy good sound but broke after week and a half of medium use

Love elixers, best strings that I have ever used. Love the feel the sound and they last longer than any other brands I've used. I hate trying new brands anymore because they always fall short on sound and quality so now I stay with elixer and avoid disappointment. They cost more but are worth it in my opinion. If you like changing strings every week or don't care about feel or balanced brightness of sound then get the cheaper strings for sure.
