I have tried many different strings *Different brands, different gauge sizes etc,,) but Elixir is definitely the one I'm sticking to! Of course, you can try different gauge sizes and different coating types and choose according to your taste. For me, Optiweb is the best one and I love super-light gauge strings

There's not much to rate about a pair of strings, but i have to say that i am sticking with these form now on. Their life expectancy is really big and if you play with clean hands you can keep them for a couple, maybe three, months. However, i didn't notice any difference in sound after putting these on.

Good for guitarists who like natural-feeling strings
UlisB 14.02.2020
The Elixir Optiweb Super Light strings (9-42) are an excellent product for any guitarists who loves the long life of coated strings but who likes the feel and sound of uncoated strings. These strings manage to deliver both quite well, even though the high E string broke on my guitar within the first month. The tone is crisp and clear and the feel is smooth without being too slippery. Excellent strings!

They're elixirs, they sound and feel great

Can't go wrong with elixirs, as long as you're aware that they are coated strings and that's what you're looking for!

I hate the sound
TrashPanda 03.06.2023
To me, they sound awful. I understand crispy and bright sound but they almost make your guitar sound like a sitar. (even tho after a week the sound gets duller (or i just got used to it))
I'm not sure about the longevity, if I don't update this comment that would mean the coating is doing its job.

Best strings on the market
Fleeeep 29.12.2020
I’ve tried them all and these are by far my favourite strings. They have the best balance of feel and longevity of all coated strings.
Most feel too plasticky and slippery but these have the feel of regular Un coated strings but with the long last bright tone of treated ones.
If you’ve not tried them please do yourself a favour and pick up a set. You won’t be disappointed

Long lasting decent strings
Supek1 10.03.2022
Nice in touch don’t get rusty and dirty to quickly and sound really good. Did not have to adjust the intonation going from daddario.

Good strings for all times
MikhailSem 07.02.2022
Good strings for all times, there is nothing to add, today these are the most popular, practical and durable guitar strings.
It came along with the main package, there are no defects, I recommend it.

Elixir, what else ?
ilikeinstruments 27.02.2021
The thinnest of coating on these bad boys. If you never tried out coated strings these are the ones that I would advise, you can barely feel that there is a coating and the sound super natural and crip.
