Elixir Strings Electric Guitar Strings w NANOWEB Coating, Light/Heavy (.010-.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.

Typically, I play Dean Markley Blue Steels, but this is my Godin LGX-SA, my flagship guitar. So I wanted to do something a little fancier this time around, something that would last longer. I had never thought of using a mixed gauge like this before, but it “feels” great. The tension just fits for the way I play. Yes, I use Drop-D tuning on some songs, but not all. Even if these weren’t Elixirs and had the cool coating (which you don’t really feel with Nanoweb like you would with…
The best. Longest lasting coated strings on the market. In the humid, sweaty, bayous of Louisiana, they’ve outlasted all the competitors. I did an experiment: Elixir vs DR Dragon Skins, D’Addario NYXL, Ernie Ball Paradigms, and Cleartone. Equal lessons/play time, strings put on at the same time, wiped down after each use, and the Elixir blew the others out of the water. My only real issue is, initially, NYXL’s have a better tone (if I had a string deal, and a guitar tech, I would definitely use…
