No need for a thousand dollar guitar

| I have a 25 year old Yamaha FG-200D(Domestic model, made in Japan) acoustic guitar. When I bought it, it was around 200 - 250 USD. I always liked the way it sounded. It was always loud, bass rich, but a little dull in high tones. Recently I purchased a set of Elixir Nanoweb Light strings. Afterwards, it sounded so great that I won't change it for a thousand dollar worth Martin. I realized that the difference was not in high strings, it was the coated low ones which now sounds crystal clear and still rich. I strongly recommend to any acoustic player. |
Oh yes

| two things that will make this simple for everyone. First off I will never go back to anything else for acoustic and second the polyweb are great but I HIGHLY recommend the nano. The tone is beautiful, soft and they last forever. If you want a higher sound with more treble go for the polyweb. |
love Elixir nanoweb

I have been using Elixir Nanoweb strings for almost two years, and won't buy anything else. What they say about long string life is absolutely true. With other strings, I needed to change them after any gig or jam session that went more than a couple hours. If I didn't, the strings sounded really, really dead. I used to change strings at least weekly, and sometimes more often.
When I play Elixir strings, they sound great when I put them on, and they still sound pretty good when I change them 3-4 months later. |

Amazing product! I replaced my strings (which were at least 2 years old, Martin strings) with these and I was blown away. It made a world of difference. Even though my guitar is entry level, having these strings make it sound amazing! Now maybe, it was because my strings were so old that the difference felt so dramatic, but I still think the Elixirs tend to ring louder and better than a lot of other strings. The nano coating can feel weird and a little slippery at first, but you'll get used to it.
If you have an entry level guitar, these will make your guitar sound so much better.
If you have a high end guitar, then you know you need the best. |
Great sounding, durable strings

| I put these strings on my Saga Gitane guitar three months ago and they still sound great. I haven't noticed any physical wear, and they hold a tuning for days and days. They have a very nice, crisp sound and the high strings are especially sharp and clear. The coating feels great on the fingers and probably makes slides a little easier. They are a little pricey, but they probably last twice as long as cheaper strings. Highly recommended. |
