Acoustic Phosphor Bronze with NANOWEB Coating.

Many players prefer the rich, textured tone of phosphor bronze strings. These Elixir Strings capture the sweet spot of that unique phosphor bronze tone. And, players report their tone lasts longer than any other string, uncoated or coated.

America's #1 selling acoustic guitar strings, Elixir Strings, retain their tone longer than any other string, uncoated or coated, according to players. They provide the playability and long lasting tone that top artists worldwide depend upon.

Elixir Nanoweb HD Light Strings have a bolder high end and fuller low end with a balanced voice across all the strings. This was achieved by blending the plain steel strings of a medium gauge set with the wound strings of a light gauge set, bridged by a custom .025 third string. The increased tension of the treble strings improves their articulation. The interaction of the tension profile with the soundboard also adds to the harmonic content of the bass strings. The result is a new phosphor bronze tone that offers a balanced voice across all the strings and a light, comfortable hand feel.

Gauges: 13–17–25–32–42–53.

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.
