Great for sweaty-handed players like me! July 28, 2008

I tried these not knowing what to expect, and have been very pleasantly surprised. I tend to have sweaty hands, and my guitar strings get a lot of crud on them and then eventually rust. Although I have learned now to wipe them down each time I play, they still deteriorate pretty quickly, and it's a pain. When I wipe them down with a cloth, they leave black streaks of crud on the cloth.
The Elixirs are not as bright as other strings when you first put them on -- that is true. However, other strings lose their brightness after just a few hours of playing, so I don't see this as a major disadvantage. The advantage is that these strings get very little crud on them. When I wipe them down, there's nothing on the cloth! I've even stopped wiping my strings down as carefully.
So for a player like me, these are a godsend. I don't detect any loss of tone. They are a bit slippery, and some people have reported having trouble because of this, but it's fine for me.
Definitely they're worth a try. Although they're twice as expensive as regular strings, they'll last longer, so they're worth checking out! Ernie Ball makes titanium coated strings that I'm interested in trying out, and there are some other brands, too.
Tired of rusty strings? no more!! January 13, 2007
P. Amado Montoya (Colombia, South America)
i am an ocasional player, mostly at home, some gigs once in a while, and i used to suffer whenever i went a long time without playing my guitars because no matter how much i wiped them after playing they always become rusty and lose tone very fast.
since i have elixirs on all my guitars i can go for months without changing strings with hardly any lose in tone and no rust at all!! it has changed my life for the better, if you gig or play ocassionally no other brand will last as long!!
The Best Strings August 27, 2007
B. Batchelor (Dallas, NC)
I play in a house band in a club in Charlotte, NC. These are the only strings I will use. I've tried many different types over the years, and I love these strings.
Elixir guitar strings February 7, 2010
AC (Ft Laud, FL USA)
The best there is if you don't change your strings as often as you should. Great sound out of the box and they maintain their level longer than cheaper strings. I think new strings of almost any brand sound great initially, but unless you are a gigging musician, which I am not, why change them once a week? Great strings even though they are pricey.
Best strings for acoustic guitars April 7, 2010
Christopher Orlando (North Centereach, NY United States)
I have been playing guitar for over 45 years, and these strings are the best sounding I've ever put on an acoustic guitar. You can put these on the cheapest guitar and it will sound like a much more expensive one. Unless you have a certain application for your acoustic that you need a specific sound for, these are the strings for you.
Point in case, I am in a Beatles' Tribute band and have the Epiphone EJ 160 John Lennon acoustic. I need it to have the specific sound John Lennon gets on I Feel Fine, and have to use flatwounds. With this one exception, I put Elixir strings on all acoustic guitars, and recommend them to everyone.
