Nickel Plated Steel

Great strings Nice feel

Elixir strings. A fantastic product

i have tried many guitar strings and i absolutely love these, they feel smooth, last ages and sound great. i use these on an ibanez rg-550 and works perfectly

Elixir Strings have been my main choice for years, they last, are bright (I play a fender Strat), so for me the price isn't an issue. I ordered these strings late Saturday night and they were delivered Sunday afternoon, I was astonished to see them on the mat as I walked in. I will definitely explore 'The Music Saver' more to see what else they offer. Top class service.

These strings last for about 4 - 5 months before going dead ( I play 4 - 5 hours every day )The only way they don't last is if you brake a string ( that can sometimes happen with these )The other setback, is they are have higher tension that un-coated strings, so you could need some neck & action adjustments to make.But I still like these strings for what they do well !

Quality

Elixir 12050 Strings Electric Guitar Strings w POLYWEB Coating, Light (.010-.046)As strings go Ive been trying out a few these last few months and the ones i lean towards the most are these and the D'addario XS.These feel great, regarding tone well its minimal personally. Regarding longevity Ive used this for around 2 months and the coating does seem to be holding up something i couldn't say for the DR neon which after 2 sessions the coating came apart.Overall im happy with sticking with either the d'addario or elixir.

I tried all competitors available on Amazon and now as final decision I stick to Elixir, for my ears and fingers practice this is the best for me: the blue and orange boxes. This is my personal opinion as we are all different, still the quality made me sticking to this company.

my hollow body epiphone, casino coupe, comes alive with these strings. very easy to play and very durable. great investment in my playing.

If you are a sweaty handed ape like me, stop what you're doing right now and buy these strings. Every regular set of nickel strings I'd buy would be tarnished and dull within (no exaggeration) 2-3 days. I thought that was just the nature of guitar strings! Turns out it's just my sweaty hands causing strings to tarnish immediately. Even when I'd try wiping off the strings after playing they would still tarnish and dull so quickly.I've had my "new" guitar for a little over a year now and I came THIS CLOSE to spending $400 on a new set of pickups because I was so disappointed that they sounded so dull and muddy. I noticed that when I replaced the strings, the guitar would sound great for one, maybe two, days and then back to the muddy swamps.Well, I'm SO GLAD I gave these Elixirs a shot. They sound awesome and one week into restringing they're still bright and shiny and playing like new. Can't believe I waited this long. I can't recommend them enough. I've been teaching myself some old 70's hard rock solos that have crazy bends and have not managed to pop any strings yet, so extra bonus there. They seem durable. So happy with these. Buy them!

Die Saiten wurden gekauft für einen wiederentdeckten, ca. 30 Jahre alten Fender-Stratocaster. Aufziehen und Stimmen kein Problem; das Tuning wurde schon nach kurzer Spielzeit von den Saiten gut gehalten. Erster Eindruck: Passt, wenn man alles "weich" haben will. Wunderbar "soft" bespielbar und guter Sound, wenn man Anklänge an "Acoustic Guitar" braucht. Wer Heavy-Metal braucht: Dickere Saiten wählen. Langzeiterfahrung naturgemäß nach ein paar Wochen noch nicht möglich.

still feel and sound great months after install
