  • Great strings
Style: 6 String Set Size: Heavy (.012-.052)
My first experience with these strings was with a custom guitar I ordered about a year ago. These strings have exceeded my expectations. I was a long time D'Addario player but after playing Elixirs, I dont think I'll go back. I've noticed greater longevity with the strings. They don't rust and they retain their tone much longer than other strings I've used. My guitars have Floyd Rose bridges and I've noticed these strings tend to remain in tune better than other strings I've tested. Recently I purchased an ESP KH Jr guitar with a fixed bridge. I was having a heck of a time tuning this guitar and keeping it in tune. Additionally the tone of the guitar was quite muddy on the low end. I put some 12 elixirs on it and both problems were solved. It stays in tune now and the heavier guage seems to have tightened up the Bottom end. ... show more

  • Great Strings!
Style: 6 String Set Size: Heavy (.012-.052)
I've been using Elixirs since I bought a Taylor years ago. I used to just use them on my acoustics because the sounded amazing, but now I use them on both my acoustics and electrics. These strings go great on a Taylor T-5 or a Les Paul. Yes, they are heavier gauge as the other reviews pointed out, and the G string is a wound G. Heavier gauge and a wound G can make solos more difficult if you're bending strings, but I've had no problem adjusting. They last forever, sound great, and Amazon has them at a great price. I really can't say enough about Elixirs. ... show more

  • Perfect strings
Style: 6 String Set Size: Heavy (.012-.052)
It is nearly May, and I have had the same set of elixirs on my Taylor T5 guitar since mid-January. They keep their tune very well and I haven’t had a noticeable loss in tone so far. I don’t play the same guitar every day, but I play this Guitar for most rehearsals and gigs. I’m going to see how long I can keep these on, until they break or become unplayable. (With an extra set in the case, just in case.). I’ve used elixir acoustic strings since 2010 and this is my first time using their electric string. So far, I’m very impressed! I’ll be back to tell how long I kept the string on. ... show more

I have been using Elixir Strings on my acoustic for ever. I got a PRS Guitar a little over a year ago and Just changed the strings and they sound Amazing. They are bright and feel good when playing. I got a heavy gauge for jazz music that I'm working on and I just Love the sound I'm getting. And the strings last a really long time. ... show more

  • 21 years on Elixir strings and still loving them
Style: 6 String Set Size: Heavy (.012-.052)
I have been playing acoustic guitar for over 20 years now, and as long as I can remember I have used elixir strings. I recently got an electric guitar and for some reason decided to try earnie ball strings... Horrible choice. They had me thinking I hated electric guitars with how inconsistent they sounded. So I decided before I hang up my new SG for good, I should try using the brand I always have and got a set of Elixir heavys and the difference is shocking. Sounds like an actual guitar now, consistent and clean. These have a really rich deep tone to them and I love it. Save yourself time and get these first. No idea why I was trying something else in the first place. ... show more
