Series Info

Elixir® Strings are available in two different 'flavors'. Both feature the same patented protection and deliver the same extended life, but differ in tone and feel.


What's the difference between NANOWEB® and POLYWEB® coatings?

The difference between our coating 'flavors' is found in the tone and feel of the strings. NANOWEB® coated strings sound and feel like uncoated strings - they are bright and lively, and the coating is so micro thin that you can barely tell it's there.

POLYWEB® coated strings have a balanced tone and smooth response - they sound like strings that have been 'played in'. In addition, POLYWEB® coated strings feel comfortably smooth and help reduce finger squeak.


Elixir® Strings with ultra thin NANOWEB® coating...

-Have the bright tone and punch of non-coated strings
-Feel like traditional strings

Too slippery!

No, these strings are not for me! A lot of people really like them, but I don't!. First of all, the Nanoweb coating makes them feel very slippery under my (left-hand) fingertips. I thought I could maybe get used to this, but after three weeks I've given up. I have several guitars, and the others are fitted with standard, uncoated strings, so I could easily compare them.
Also, they sound too bright and 'metallic' for my taste, but I suppose this is to be expected from 80/20 strings.
Anyway, this is just my opinion.

Quiet string noise but short life for tonality

If their main feature is “long lasting” then I would argue that they lose their tonality and intonation quicker than some other choices. The real value is that these strings do reduce guitar string “squeak” and that has been useful for recording subtle finger picking.

Perfect

These strings are very durable and the sound is constant. They will not fade due to the oxidation.

Strings are not just strings. They are the connection between you and your music. When strings go dead, so does your inspiration to play. After all, who wants to play when strings feel crusty and their sound is muddy and dull? It's a curse we've lived with for years. With a vision to change the world one set at a time, we set out to develop the cure for the common string. Strings that deliver great tone for a really long time. Strings that stay feeling clean and smooth. Strings that always inspire you to play. After experiencing Elixir® Strings, it's hard to go back to the old way of life. Sure, the need to buy fewer sets of strings saves you money. But more important is the joy of knowing that your strings are always ready when you are. Elixir Strings tone last 3-5x longer than ordinary strings. This means you buy fewer sets of strings, change them less often, and trust that your guitar is ready to go when you are. Now available, all Elixir Strings acoustic sets include Anti-Rust plated plain steels. These unique plain steels offer 3-5 times longer tone life than ordinary plain steels yet provide the same brilliant tone you've come to expect from Elixir Strings.
