Nothing exceptional
busy_b 15.02.2020
I've bought couple of Elixirs of various light gauge as spare strings and for some experimenting with custom set. I was curious about it and Ernie Ball singles are available only as sets of six (which would take years for me to spent).
Anti-rust plain steel Elixirs are packed quite crude in paper sleeve and in my opinion are nothing exceptional, maybe even slightly worse in sound. Their price is higher than d'Addario's singles, but this difference doesn't matter. For the durability I have to wait, I don't play guitar intensively.

a must have for guitar players

Who hasn't broke an E string on their guitar? It happens all the time, so if you're in a live situation, or just don't want to change the other strings because they still sound great, the best is to have a good replacement around. These elixir singles are pretty good sounding and long lasting, so you can keep them in your guitar case for a long time without no problems, since they have an anti-corrosion coating.

The best so far
nedimbakic 14.08.2024
Due to sweating, my strings usually last a day or two before corroding. After that come problems with intonation and string breaking. With Elixir strings, these problems are gone.
Yes, string breaking still happens due to aggressive playing, but much less often than with other strings. I recently tried the Ernie Ball PARADIGM and was totally disappointed because the strings were destroyed after only two days of playing and they are not cheap. They immediately ended up in the trash and were replaced with Elixir strings.

Always the G string
WozaPT 02.05.2018
Fitting new Elixir strings to my 12-string acoustic I managed to snap the high octave G string even though I was tuning down by a semitone, so I had to borrow a .009 gauge string from a new pack of Ernie Ball super slinkys ... and hence the need to stock up with some .009 single string replacements. These are not nanoweb coated like the full set I was fitting to my 12 string which do not appear to be available as single strings but at this gauge it is no problem.
