Frequently asked questions

Elixir Strings are made from Stainless Steel. This material gives an aggressive, bright tone and phenomenal clarity to your bass guitar sound.

The NANOWEB coating is an innovative feature of Elixir Strings. This ultra-thin layer provides a feel that is smooth and comfortable while playing. It also protects the string from dirt, sweat and humidity, extending the life of your strings.

The term 'long scale' refers to the distance between the nut and the bridge of a bass guitar. These Elixir Strings are suited for bass guitars with a scale length of up to 36 1/4 inches.

These Elixir Strings have a Light/Medium gauge, which ranges from .045-.105. This means the strings vary in diameter from .045 inches to .105 inches. This gauge combination delivers a balance of rich, rounded tone with comfortable playability.

Size: Lt Medium, Long Scale (.045-.105) Style: 4 String Set
Been playing bass for over 37 years and have used so many different brand of stings. These Elixer strings I have been using for 11 years and they are the best durable strings that sound great for longer time.

    • Insanely good for touring musicians
Size: Lt Medium, Long Scale (.045-.105) Style: 4 String Set
The price tag is capital S STEEP , for me anyways but they're beyond worth it ! After playing so many shows you're quite obviously going to be tired so maintenance doesn't take as much of a priority as it should , with these though? My strings are never not bright and like new ! These maintain their tuning and tone stability no matter what they're put through , I don't even have a guitar case , I use a gig bag and these are STILL in perfect condition. Using a stingray bass I need bright strings that will compliment the naturally bright tone of the guitar, and these have never disappointed. Always bright , always in tune , always smooth . I don't think I'll ever choose another brand for my bass strings. ... show more

Review Image by Robert A. Robert A.
I've been string chasing for decades. I always come back to Elixirs. I prefer the brand new, fresh out of the box, round wound sound. I blow through a pack of most string brands after a week or two. With 4 basses in my rotation constantly gigging, recording, and practicing... I would blow $100 per month on strings easily. Elixir has solved this. Both the nickels and steels sound great. The nickels are a bit warmer and the nickels are a bit brighter. However I would consider them both to be a more slap, shimmer type of string. Again, that's exactly what I'm seeking. I get 3 months easily out of a set instead of the usual 2 weeks. I've pushed them as far as 6 months on basses that aren't used every day. ... show more

    • Super Crisp & Clear sound...
Size: Lt Medium, Long Scale (.045-.135) Style: 5 String Set
They sound very metallic and super crisp, I can't tell if is true that the bright metal does not fade, but after a month of playing them 5 hours a week, they are still quite crisp. The only reason I give them 4 stars is that the "Long Scale" is not long enough for my G&L L-2500 to go through the body and thus I have had to modify the bass to make sure the bridge is strong enough instead... other than that they are superb... I guess after modifying the bass, I can always use these strings... I will likely re-review in about 6 months to see if the crisp sound is still there... I read some reviews that they feel strange or gooey, I can honestly say I have not noticed that from the nanoweb... they do not feel as smooth as I thought the would be, they feel pretty normal to me. ... show more
