Why use ELIXIR Strings

Description
Unlike other string brands, Elixir Strings coats the whole string. This protects not only the outer string surface but also the gaps between the windings where common tone-deadening gunk typically builds up in other brands' coated and uncoated guitar strings. Anti-Rust Plating on plain steel strings ensures longer tone life for the entire set.
Who wouldn’t love more quality playing time between the hassle and cost of string changes?
Premium by design, these acoustic strings constructed with 80/20 (80% copper, 20% zinc) bronze wrap wire boast a crisp, bright tone with an expressive, vibrant presence. Compared to Elixir's original POLYWEB Coating, the ultrathin NANOWEB Coating allows a more traditionally textured, "uncoated" feel.
For a slicker, gentler feel, try the original POLYWEB Coating on their 80/20 Bronze acoustic strings, which also feature a more robust and rounded tone. For more of a balance between bold and bright, Elixir's Phosphor Bronze acoustic guitar strings with NANOWEB Coating deliver full-bodied tone and sparkling high-end clarity alongside the same traditional feel as these 80/20 bronze strings.
Of course, the kind of string you play is all a matter of personal preference. Not sure what tone or feel is right for you? Try them out for yourself, and find your new favorite string from Elixir Strings. For a more in-depth look at what makes our strings so special, scroll to the branded info further down the page.

Awesome!!
I got these strings for a guitar that was extremely cheap... they made it sound EXCELLENT! I play a ton of slides and hammer-ons... I play the acoustic like an electric, and the Nanoweb coating on these strings make them VERY slick. It feels like you are playing an electric guitar!!

Use every day, about 1 hour. Like the quality, but little durability: lasts only 1 month.

For beginner guitarists who have not developed calculus on their fingers yet, makes it more easy to slide up and down the fretboard with less friction on the hands due to the special protective coating that prevents it from rusting in the hot and humid environment of Florida and one of my friends had the same strings on his guitar for 5 years and he played a lot. #sweepsteaks

I went in to have my strings changed. I can't remember the name of the repair man who changed them. I believe he had long brown hair and glasses. He was very quick to fix my guitar up for me, friendly, and didnt complain that the store was about to close. I was planning on leaving it overnight, figuring it would take a day or two, but he fix them really quickly. They sound great on my hummingbird Epiphone guitar.
Would buy this again!
