Perfect for the jungle
I live in the tropics—a literal jungle climate.Additionally, I am familiar with Elixir brand guitar strings, which I use for my 12-string acoustic and my 6-string acoustic. However, this is the first time I ever used Elixir brand ELECTRIC GUITAR strings.Frankly I was extremely worried because it seems that a large group of buyers of this product (steel strings) bought them for their acoustic guitar, it got me curious on the statistics of reviews where people are using the product for its intended purpose. I hope this review doesn't disappoint.So for anyone who wanders to the review section before buying, MY REVIEW IS FOR A 12-STRING SET FOR ELECTRIC GUITARS. There IS a difference and if you don't know, I invite you to do some research before committing to an investment as it could make your guitar sound better and last longer.So, I got a 12-string set for my 12-string electric. I was completely surprised that Elixir made a listing for the instrument because 12-string electrics are relatively rare, unusual, and old-fashioned—meaning it's a forgotten item that most string manufacturers overlook, especially with their flagship sets of strings. Elixir went against the odds and got this product out for weird people like me and it uses the same technology as their popular 6-string set counterparts have. Hurray!That being said, you get steel strings that are slipped into a tight micro-thin layer of plastic. This helps keep finger crud and buildup from getting in-between the winding of wound strings, which is one of the major culprits of strings losing their charming ring. The same plastic layer protects the string from sweaty hands and moisture (please do not dunk your guitar in a body of water), which would otherwise rust your strings and also make them sound dead/dull/bad. Considering that I live in the tropics with crazy humidity levels (normally above 80% everyday), these strings will last maintenance-free (you will still require to TUNE your guitar) for months in comparison to uncoated standard strings that could last about 1 month if I'm lucky.I haven't had my 12-string steel (electric guitar) strings for long enough to determine their longevity, however from my OTHER guitars that use the same brand, I can say that the strings could last a long time. One guitar I restrung back in OCTOBER 2022 and those strings still play and sound great. It's AUGUST 2023 now. I will admit that after such a long time, there is minor blemishing on their phosphor bronze strings, but that is exactly what I consider to be impressive. And I don't consider myself to be a soft/light player, neither. I have similar expectations for my steel strings from Elixir.Now unwound strings do not get the plastic coating, probably because of how awkward it would be if it started shifting. Instead, Elixir treats their strings with an anti-rust nickel coating. My research on their manufacturing process is inconclusive, but their "plain steel" strings (strings without winding) do last considerably longer than the competition. Albeit, they will still rust, but I'm sure one wipe from a dry cloth will lengthen the string life considerably. I don't wipe my strings and they tend to do well on their own. And remember: I live in a jungle climate.These strings feel slick on the fingertips, which some people love or hate. I prefer slick instead of sticky. And now that I mention it, there is a small group of people who HATE these strings with a passion. Realistically, though, people don't have conversations about guitar strings—unless you're talking about your G String. I think any self-respecting guitarist will complain about how their G String is "too loose" or "too tight" or "too sharp" or "too flat" at some point of their life. How at one moment, you feel like "it's there" and then after a bit, it feels like it shifted and now it feels weird. I personally don't like it when mine is "too noticeable". We've all been there. As long as it doesn't snap during your performance is the key. Otherwise you'll be red with embarrassment with your G String hanging down by your knees or ankles.I think these strings are the best. Some say that the plastic coating can interfere with how pickups interact with the strings, which I say that the coating is so thin that the impact on sound is negligible.MY ONLY RECOMMENDATION when using these strings is to make sure your pick and fingernails do not have sharp edges. The moment that the integrity of the coating is compromised, the strings will lose their magic and rust alarmingly faster. Since I ensure that I'm using smooth-edged picks by round sanding the edges with 600 to 1200 to 2000 grit sandpaper (my personal approach), I find that I can play as heavy and aggressively as I want with these strings and nothing bad happens to the coating.So, to wrap up my thoughts, these strings sound beautiful; they feel beautiful; they last a crazy long time; and most important to me: they can easily endure high humidity climates.
Favorite strings bundled as a 4-pack
I love Elixir strings - they last long, feel awesome, and sound vibrant. I am really impressed with the build quality of the strings and the overall sound quality. The 10-46 gauge is my preferred range - playing between rock, punk, and metal.These strings last an extremely long time. I have had some sets I purchased previously that I have left on guitars for a few years because I was too lazy to change them, but honestly, they still sound great, about as bright when first installed.The price for the four-pack at the time was much, much cheaper than buying four individual packs; however, I see where the price fluctuates and can be the same price or even more, so beware and check the prices. Also, the four pack groups all the strings together - you have to check the individual sleeves and make sure you use one of each string diameter when re-stringing your guitar. Not a big deal, just a heads up.
Great guitar strings ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
These strings sound great and feel really good when playing. The tone is clear and bright, and they stay in tune well. I’ve been very happy with them so far and would definitely use them again. 🎸
Bright tone, clean sound. No finger scratchy sound when you move your fingers on the strings..
I love Elixir guitar strings. They last a long time and have a nice feel and sound bright and new. They look great too. They highlight your guitars with the way they reflect lighting off of them. But what I like best is the way they feel when your playing. They dont have that scratch like sound when you reposition your fingers, just nice tones. I haven't tried a whole lot of other strings, I suppose because I haven't changed strings too often, being that I haven't been playing all that long. I usrd to play when I was younger pretty good, but went without playing for decades so, I'm getting reacquainted with guitar again. These strings are very nice though. Guitar players that haven't tried Elixir strings should try them out. They are good in all aspects, and probably last longer than a lot of other strings out there. That was a quality that I read somewhere that was reviewing them.
Best strings I've ever used
Quite simply the best strings I've ever used and I've been playing guitar for almost 50 years. Great tone, very durable and stay in tune better than any of the others I've used. Yes, they're pricey, but they'll easily out last several sets of other strings. I've been using my current set on my Schecter guitar with a Floyd Rose bridge for nearly a year and even with my playing every day with very frequent use of the trem, they still look, feel and sound as good as new!
Great value for money
I sweat a lot and don’t change strings often. This is perfect, they maintain tuning and brightness for months!!
Awesome strings. But Low 7 could be tighter
I love elixir strings. Especially on my acoustic(Phosphor Bronze Lights are the shizzz). I bought these to see if the same tone and longevity that I got from my acoustic could transfer to my Ibanez 7620. For the most part. Yes. The tone great. I love how long these strings last and they bend quite well. I don't mind the coating shred around the pickup area that some don't like with coated strings. As long as it's not happening on the fretboard I am a happy camper.My only gripe with most 7 string sets is their low B string is never the right tension. The Low B is a 56 in this set. D addario sells a 59 for their Low B. The 56 is a little too floppy for any kind of metal or even Jazz play. I feel that most string companies also do this too, not just Elixir so I assume they are just following suit.If you don't mind that the 56 will not be as tight as it should be(IMO) then totally go for this set. If not then get yourself a set of D Addario 10-59s or just a single 59 and a box of 6 String Elixir(10-46) Nanoweb Coating. That should hold you over till someone figures out the right tensions for 7-8 string sets.
Was fast delivery
Guitar strings are great and the delivery was great
Definitely worth to buy
Amazing strings

Elixir is my go-to
My go-to strings for Standard, Eb and Drop D. I will never go back to non coated. Wish they weren't so hard to get hold of.
