Medium Strings Gauges 13-17-26-35-45-56. Elixirs are the first major innovation in strings in over forty years, and deliver what they promise: great tone and long life no matter what you put them on or how often you play. Elixir Strings are covered with an ultra-thin, space-age polymer tube that contacts the string on the tops of the windings only. This leaves the all-important winding-to-winding-to-core space free from the fear of the enemies of tone!

 Amazing Strings April 4, 2006

the polyweb coating makes them last much longer than normal strings, and allows them to sound much better throughout their lifetime by preventing oil from your fingers from building up on them. the coating also allows for easier slide playing.
great concept, well worth the extra few bucks they cost.
Simply no other choice for strings. August 21, 2009

Elixer strings are the best. I first played on them 10 years ago. I knew I would never use another brand. The polyweb coating really makes these strings stand out and sound bright. Unfortunately, retail stores really mark up the price on them. I've seen them listed for up to $23! I used to get them for about $10 from a friend who worked at Guitar Center. But now, I just go online. Great price at Amazon. Great strings.
These are my favorite May 1, 2010

I've tried a lot of strings, and none of them sound and feel better than these Medium Polywebs.
I much prefer these over the Nanoweb. The Nanowebs made my Taylor sound too bright for my style of playing, I guess.
These are always the ones I choose for my steel string acoustic guitar.
Very nice set of premium strings August 13, 2008

These stings are very good. Personally I prefer the d'ddario phosphor bronze, but the polywebs last 3 times as long.
Another upside to the polywebs is that they eliminate string noise, and "string grab" on your fingers when sliding up by fiths, octaves, or when just changing chords quickly. The fingers kind of glide over the stings.
Downside is that the coating does noticeably effect the richness of the tone when the strings start to age, and will never sound exactly like a top quality un-coated new phosphor bronze set.
Then again my ears are very very particular to tone quality and timbre, and some say they don't notice any difference.
 Not for me. July 13, 2008

For my taste these are way to hard. If your a Pro with finger tips made of steel these may be very good for you cuz they do produce a very nice sound. But if your a newbie like me or only pick up a guitar every now and then these are very difficult to play with.
I wish I knew what were the strings that came originally came with my guitar cuz those were much easier to play with.
