Elixir Strings Electric Guitar Strings w NANOWEB Coating, Heavy (.012-.052)
Amp up your guitar’s tone life with the same premium electric guitar strings that experienced players worldwide trust to keep their incredible tone longer than any other string available. Unlike other string brands, Elixir Strings coats the whole string. This protects not only the outer string surface but also the gaps between the windings where common tone-deadening gunk typically builds up in other brands’ coated and uncoated guitar strings. Who wouldn’t love more quality playing time between the hassle and cost of string changes? Engineered to endure, these nickel-plated steel electric guitar strings boast a ton of bright, vibrant presence and dynamic punch. Compared to our original POLYWEB Coating, the ultra-thin NANOWEB Coating allows a more traditionally textured, “uncoated” feel. For a slicker, gentler feel, try a set of electric guitar strings with our original POLYWEB Coating, which also feature a warmer tone. Of course, the kind of string you play is all a matter of personal preference. Not sure what tone or feel is right for you? Try them out for yourself, and find your new favorite string from Elixir Strings. For a more in-depth look at what makes our strings so special, scroll to the branded info further down the page. Elixir Strings: Great tone. Long life.

Long lasting. Reduced squeek. I do like these guitar strings and have put them on my acoustic guitar with them producing a vibrant sound. This will be my first time stringing them on my Les Paul and I chose the Heavy Nanoweb. They sound good for electric guitar strings—except for the G string! For some reason the G string is wound (like an acoustic string). The effect is a significant DROP in volume. So I play all strings: E, A, D, G, B, E and the G is half the volume. This does not sound good at all. My solution is to…
Simply the best. I can’t believe I went 20 years into my guitar playing “career” before ever discovering Elixirs. Bright tone, smooth action, a player’s string set. I’ve tried many other sets of strings in my life, ranging from the discount/commoditized strings up to high-end boutique/imported strings… and these beat them all by a mile (measure?). Get them and end your search for the perfect strings! (for what it’s worth, they seem to last forever…. I’m a “nightly” hobbyist…
