Long Lasting and Reliable

Vanishing 25.02.2022

Good strings. I haven't used coated strings in the past and wanted to try them out.

No blackening or corrosion after using them most days for practise for the last 3 weeks.

They have a slightly different feel to uncoated strings, you can feel the coating but it isn't distracting once you play a little and get used to it. Almost like a softer feel but the strings still had a good sound and didn't seem noticeable darker.

Overall the extra cost I paid over my usual standard Ernie Balls has been worth it in terms of longevity so I'm happy with the strings. I would probably buy them again and have no complaints about the quality.

I'll never go back to uncoated

DimitrisL 22.12.2021

First pack of coated strings I tried and I have to say they more than met my expectations.
Last pair lasted me about 7 months during which there was regular playing of an average 2 hours per day.
They kept their tone and response way longer than regular uncoated strings (about 7 times longer) and even by the end of the 7th month, while not retaining their initial brightness and tone, they didn't show any signs of wear and use.
Definitely recommend to give them a try.

Elixirs are the most pleasant, longest lastings strings on the market. They feel crisp even after a couple of months of use. Reliable and sounding great!

for seasonal players, probably the best choice you can go

tava 26.05.2021

For a period of time, I have played very little guitar and left it aside gathering dust on the gigbag. After at least 5 months, the guitar strings still felt "fresh," highly playable and sounding as described.
However, you must put into consideration that after a prolonged time of playing them, the clear coat wears off and become good old quality strings. Im a big fan of these and feel really great for my playing and guitars. I was heavily sceptical for them at first, but instead pleasently surprised by the feel and sound it produced.

Warmly reccomending them to seasonal players, or people that dont wish to change guitar strings every time they decide to pick up that specific guitar again.
