These are the best quality strings I’ve ever used. Other brands’ strings usually start to corrode after 2 weeks of use. These strings don’t even show wear until a couple of months of use. They have a great sound and they feel great.

Best strings I've ever purchased
I got my first set of these strings Oct 5th 2022 here we are 2 months short of 3 years and the high E string broke so I'm here to get a new set. Best money I ever spent on guitar strings. The strings still sound amazing if the high e hadn't broke I wouldn't even be replacing them yet.

Must have for floating trem systems!
High quality strings with a long life and stellar tone. Have been a Slinky guy the whole 25 years of playing. Recently purchased a Double locking trem system, and didn't want strings that go dull after a few practices since setting up a floating bridge is fairly time consuming. These strings go a long long way. Only change them when one breaks. Even a new string when an older set matches tone once broken in, which only takes about a week so you don't need to change the whole every time a string breaks. More money up front saves you a bunch of money down the road with Elixirs. And the tone and feel is top notch! If you have a floating trem system I highly recommend using Elixir!

Quality strings!
Some of the best string out there! I was turned onto these after I started playing and rehearsing live 12hrs-15hrs a week. I was using just whatever, and I noticed my strings would loose top end and deaden within 1-2 months with Earnie Ball. I like the cheaper strings for replacement and if playing gigs that require fresh strings nightly. But for most players that want strings that’ll last 6-8 months…these are the strings. They won’t always get that much, but sound wise when that do last long they sound crisp still. Great for recording and busy gig months. Just pack some cheap ones for spares. Although string breakage has been rare for me with Elixrs.

Play Hard
The string tone is clear. Playability is smooth. Strings wipe down increasing life. Price is reasonable and worth the investment!

Great feel and tone.
Great strings that sound nice and crisp and last a long time. They feel slick and stay in tune. I use these thick stings gauges as I tune to D standard tuning on all my guitars. I uses these on my PRS custom 24 10 tops and all my Gibson Custom Les Pauls. I even use them in my custom fender strat. Would definitely recommend trying these out.
