Elixir Strings: Great Tone. Long Life.
Experienced players worldwide trust Elixir Strings to keep their incredible tone longer than any other string available. These premium acoustic guitar strings are engineered to endure, with a dynamic balance of rich, full-bodied tone and sparkling high-end clarity.
Unlike other string brands, Elixir Strings coats the whole string, protecting not only the outer string surface but also the gaps between the windings where common tone-deadening gunk typically builds up. The Anti-Rust Plating on the plain steel strings ensures longer tone life for the entire set, allowing for more quality playing time between string changes.
Constructed with phosphor bronze wrap wire, these acoustic strings offer a traditionally textured, "uncoated" feel with the ultra-thin NANOWEB Coating. For a slicker, gentler feel, the 80/20 Bronze Acoustic Guitar Strings with the original POLYWEB Coating might be a better fit, providing a more robust and rounded tone.
On the other end of the tone spectrum, the 80/20 Bronze Acoustic Guitar Strings with the NANOWEB Coating deliver a brighter, crisper tone alongside the same traditional feel as the phosphor bronze strings. The choice of string is ultimately a matter of personal preference, and Elixir Strings encourages players to try them out and find their new favorite.
These leading guitar strings are made in the USA, lab- and field-tested, and crafted to exacting specifications in Elixir's state-of-the-art facility. Versatile and durable, they consistently deliver a reliable performance, retaining their out-of-the-box tone longer than other coated or uncoated strings due to the protective NANOWEB Coating.
Whether you prefer a rich, full-bodied tone or a brighter, crisper sound, Elixir Strings offer a wide range of options to suit your personal playing style and preferences. With corrosion resistance, long-lasting tone, and a comfortable feel, these acoustic guitar strings are the trusted choice for musicians worldwide.
