I am playing bass guitar for about 17 years now and I have tried almost every brand of bass strings but Elixir is the only one I prefer the most.
Smooth for the fingers, great clear sound that lasts 2-3 times more than any other brand and they stay clean because of the nanoweb.
I am using the XL scale because I have 2 string through basses and an Ibanez BTB675, 5 string 35" scale, so for this I have to buy separately a fifth XL string, which is the Elixir .130XL TW Bass Single String.
Despite the expensive price, I prefer these than changing strings every 2 months.

Use this strings on main bass for rehearsals and performances, and it's great! Stays bright for a long time, easy to clean, feels smooth, great tone and saves money.

Great set for extra-long-scale basses

Elixir strings are perfect. I used them on my fretless and they last a good long time.

Elixir, but bigger.

Used the Extra Long variant for a fanned fret ESP bass (E=~36") and they fit well.
Elixir are probably my favorite bass strings, both for their tone as well as for their feel. They don't have the harsh top end of most of the other uncoated brands I tried straight out of the packet and their longevity is amazing.

No surprises here..

As an avid user of Nanoweb Medium Long Scale strings there was no surprises here when the extra long set performed just as well on my new bass.
Same excellent quality, slightly longer string.

Best coated strings on market
rudibass 21.02.2023
Cool tone, long playlife, thicker core - good tension. During gigs no out of tune, even with hard banding. PLEASE make the 130 XL string 1 inch longer to fit on Dingwall.... Please, please please!

Love these strings!

Great strings if you don't mind spending the extra but in my opinion it's well worth it for the longevity you get from them! They sound fantastic and to me feel really nice to play. They are nice to slide on the fretboard unlike some other strings which I find too grippy! Think I've finally found my perfect string of choice!
