Description

Strum confidently with the same premium acoustic 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. Anti-Rust Plating on plain steel strings ensures longer tone life for the entire set. Who wouldn’t love more quality playing time between the hassle and cost of string changes? Engineered to endure, these acoustic strings constructed with phosphor bronze wrap wire boast a dynamic balance of rich, full-bodied tone and sparkling high-end clarity. 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 strings with our original POLYWEB Coating. The 80/20 Bronze Acoustic Guitar Strings with POLYWEB Coating, for example, might be a good fit if you want a more robust and rounded tone. On the other end of the tone spectrum, our 80/20 Bronze Acoustic Guitar Strings with NANOWEB Coating deliver a brighter, crisper tone alongside the same traditional feel as these phosphor bronze strings. 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.

  • I know one thing...
Size: Extra Light Style: Ex. Light (.010-.047)
I know squat about guitar strings. I'm a drummer of over 40 years who switch to guitar because of ailments in my old feet. I purchased a moderately priced acoustic guitar and had it professionally setup, including new strings and began teaching myself. The guitar struggled to stay in tune from day to day...and being novice I thought it was normal. Then I purchased these strings on Amazon, and put them on myself. The guitar now remains in tune for weeks and weeks at a time, and sounds great. And it's definitely not my imagination. ... show more

  • Nice feel; great sound
Size: Light/Medium Style: Lt./Med. (.012-.056)
Light gauge strings that have a nice feel and clean sound on my Ovation Matrix. Trebles are clear and bright but not overpowering; bass is clear and little subdued. Not at all "tinny" like my earlier Martin Marquis medium gauge strings. I really like these and would recommend them. NOTE: As discussed with a friend of mine who is a professional, it's best to try different string brands and models to best suit your instrument and style of play. I will be replacing the strings on my other folk guitar (Takamine) with a medium light set and expect to to be happy with that setup. ... show more

  • Best strings ever
Size: Light Style: Light (.012-.053)
The strings on my inaugural guitar, a gift from my father around age 12, were once dismissed as "childish" by the store seller, who predicted a preference for a grittier sound as I matured. Despite owning numerous guitars and trying various strings since then, it seems my musical taste has retained its youthful charm. ... show more

  • Only strings I use
Size: HD Light Style: HD Light (.013-.053)
I have gone through so many different brands and style of strings and this one hit the right spot. The playability and the longevity really are a strong selling point for these strings. They might be expensive but they honestly last 5 times longer than traitional strings. Ever heard the saying you get what you pay for? These are exactly that. ... show more

  • These strings WILL survive the tropics.
Size: HD Light Style: HD Light (.013-.053)
I live in a tropical country that normally reports 80% humidity and ABOVE throughout the year. Add some sun and you got that lovely and uncomfortable stickiness that nobody enjoys. With that, regular guitar strings don't last. Whether you are inland or at the beach, regular guitar strings will rust and snap. I met a musician who had been living here for years, who represents a major video game producer as a composer, who showed me his guitar and the first thing I noticed was his strings were SHINY. They looked brand-freakin'-new. And I commented: "You just restrung your guitar?" He said no! He restrung his guitar like a year prior!! But how?! "Elixir's, man. That's the secret." Subsequently, he played a nice guitar solo. I did my homework and got these strings in October, not expecting much. It's the last half of JULY and my strings still look freakin' new! They sound great, they play great. They feel slick on the fingers, which has it's pros and cons. Less string squeak, more grip needed when string bending. They don't gunk up and feel sticky after a gross accumulation of finger funk. Win-win-win in my books. Overall they are amazing. I got the phosphor bronze Elixirs for my 6 string acoustic, which sounds amazing; same for my 12 string acoustic, which also sounds incredible; and I have another Elixir pack (nickel plated steels) on the way for my 12 string electric (which feels unheard of). These strings will definitely not last forever, but they will extend the life of your strings by a LOT. I like to play for many hours along the week, sometimes investing several hours in playing per day. I don't "shred", but I don't believe I play "soft". These strings will last a long while, as long as you don't play with a cutting edge (i.e. fingernails or freshly stamped pick which edges haven't been sanded/filed) because once the thin plastic is exposed, these strings will lose their magic. ... show more

  • These are the perfect strings, if you like a deep, rich tone!
Size: Light Style: Light (.012-.053)
What I love most about these strings is that they are quiet when you slide your fingers from one note to another, and they have the deep rich tone that I was looking for. I purchased a mahogany guitar with a spruce top, because I like the rich sound they produce. These strings are a perfect match if you love the deep, rich tone. ... show more

  • Exactly what I need
Size: Light/Medium Style: Lt./Med. (.012-.056)
If you’ve ever tried to find the right guitar string you know exactly how difficult it is. This is the string for your acoustic. It’s warm. It’s crisp. It LASTS and keeps tone for much longer than some other brands. Better get it costs less than most other places you buy your strings. I play a lot of rhythm and prefer the medium lights for that bigger low end. ... show more

Best strings all around. Keeps time longer than most dead strings take more time. Never had one break on installation. Tension perfect easy to play. And are durable would I buy again. That’s a big yes and it won’t be long.
