Electric Elixir Strings with NANOWEB Coating deliver the presence, punch, and personality of traditional electric guitar strings but with extended tone life, consistent performance and greater playability. With less hassle and expense of frequent string changes, you enjoy more time making music.
Elixir Strings is the only brand to coat the entire string, protecting not only the outer string surface, but also the gaps between the windings. Elixir Strings retain their tone longer than any other string, uncoated or coated*. The Anti-Rust Plated Plain Steel Strings also resists tone-deadening corrosion, ensuring longer life for the entire set.

I've played the Optiweb Elixir's for a while and decided to try these and I like the feel of these ones better. They have a slickness to them which makes sliding your fingers on the strings effortless. These last an insanely long time too, like all Elixir strings. They are well worth the price!

the lights were dry and hollow sounding, their mediums are amazing and I love them but these are not good. to tinny sounding and snap very easily.

I bought these strings on the premise of better durability than Ernie Balls. My strat was sounding completely dull with these strings. Then I switched to Ernie balls and my sound improved drastically.

Just bought my first set of these to try out and must say I like the feel. It's a little strange at first with the coating but it does help with limiting the sounds from your fingers sliding along the strings. I try to play metal and find it has a good feel for speed picking, and has a great tone.
I will definitely be using these again in the future.

Whether it be blues or metal it will be great. You can barely hear the string slide unless your 100-watt is turned up all the way. It's amazing. The sound is pretty bright, if I had to describe it. With the bridge pickup it's almost overwhelmingly bright, great for pop, blues and metal leads because the bright tone cuts through the mix. It sounds bright even with a rosewood fingerboard. When using the bridge pickup it sounds warm (which is a bit odd considering that the neck is supposed to sound warm). It's good for rhythm guitar. The strings just slide, they're so smooth, even the wound strings (top 3 strings, EAD). The coating feels awkward at first on the bottom 3 strings (GBe)but you quickly get used to it. When doing powerchords it's just magnificent. The output is quite high. I play metal, blues and punk.
