Elixir Nanoweb Acoustic Guitar Strings; Don't Mess around with An Ordinary String!
Elixir Strings with ultra thin NANOWEB coating sound great 3 to 5 times longer than ordinary strings. They have the bright tone and punch of non-coated strings. All this and they still feel like traditional strings

Elixir Nanoweb Acoustic String Features
  • Great Sound that lasts 3 to 5 times longer than ordinary strings
  • Bright tone and punch like that of non-coated strings
  • The same feel you get from Traditional Strings
What Causes Ordinary Strings To Go Dead?
You do. Every time you pick up your guitar and play, you leave tiny bits of dead skin, body oils, sweat, and all types of gunk loitering on your strings. Stuck between the windings (a space Elixir calls the Critical Zone of Tone), these contaminants dampen vibration and accelerate corrosion. The result? Strings that are dead, rough and dirty.

The Cure for the Common String
Elixir Strings are coated in a unique way to protect wound strings from your DNA and other contaminants. A flexible, strong, yet micro-thin polymer tube defends the Critical Zone of Tone from invading enemies. Nothing (including the coating) gets between the windings. The result? Strings that sound and feel their best three to five times longer than ordinary strings.

The Choice is Yours
Elixir Strings are available in two different flavors. Both deliver the same long life, but differ in tone and feel.

Subject:Consistently Beats Out EVERYTHING Else!
Quality: Reliably used since 2003, have yet to get a bad set.
Sound: The harmonics really stand out strong. There's exceptional presence as well. I can't speak highly enough of these strings. Decidedly prefer the Nano over the Poly coating.
Reliability: Forever. Even after 6 months on the guitar, they sound better than a new set of Cleartones.
Overall: I started using these on an upper-end Alvarez that I bought. After trying out every brand I knew of, I couldn't get the tone as good as it had been when I bought it, so I asked the dealer what they used from factory. These Custom Lights were it. Even the more expensive Cleartones lacked the harmonics and luster
Playability and Feel: N/A
Tone: Some think they sound a bit bright, but I don't have any problem with them. The harmonics are sweet. I think maybe people are just used to NOT hearing harmonics.
Finish: Even after six months on the guitar, the Nano coating doesn't peel or flake. They look great!
Action: The custom-light set is very playable. Normally I'd go for mediums, but these lack nothing in tone, and are lighter, easier to play.
Skill Level: Pro-Rock Star
Do you own this product?: Duh?
