Elixir® Strings Nickel Plated Steel Bass strings with a NANOWEB® Coating took a year of intense research and feedback of 1000+ bassists. With the coating designed just for bass, these Nickel Plated Steel Strings offer enhanced grip, reduced finger squeak, and extended tone life. The tone is rich, rounded with greater clarity and heavier mid-range presence. While other bass strings lose their mojo fast due to dirt and debris, Elixir Strings is the only coated string brand to protect the entire string with an ultra-thin coating, keeping gunk out of the gaps between the windings. No wonder from the stadiums to the street, Elixir Strings players tell us their tone lasts longer than any other string, uncoated or coated.

Elixir Strings revolutionized guitar strings by finding a way to extend the life of wound strings without compromising the tone. Elixir Strings with NANOWEB Coating sound and feel more like traditional, uncoated strings. They are bright and lively, and the coating is so thin that you can barely tell it's there. Elixir Strings with POLYWEB Coating have a balanced tone. They sound like strings that have been perfectly “played in”. They are comfortably smooth and help reduce finger squeak. Both feature patented protection and deliver extended tone life.
