Review: Good strings good tone - My go to strings robust and long lasting and for me they sound fine , I like the 11s bendy enough but not to heavy or loose
Review: Tired of people talking rubbish about these little beauties - Here are some truths about strings in general: all guitarists have their own taste when it comes to string tone, and different people like different things. Different guitars, too, mean that the same type of string can sound different from one instrument to another, and so it's only really possible to make general recommendations about them regarding the sound. Other qualities, however, (manufacturing standards, longevity, consistency...) can be commented on more clearly but still only with reference to an individual's experience, which may differ from the experiences of others. With this is mind, here's what I think. I've been a working musician for ten years. I've tried most of the leading string brands available to acoustic players in the UK, and right now I think these phosphor bronze Elixirs are pretty much unbeatable. The old coating was rubbish, as were the old bronze strings without the phosphor in, but these, with the thinner coating and different alloy, are ACE. The tone is something you'll have to decide upon for yourself, but I find them rich, balanced, with a sweet harmonic brightness and no heavy points in their range. They're 95% as sweet and true as the (rightly very popular) uncoated D'Addario phosphor bronze in terms of tone, sweeter and brighter than the coated D'Addario EXPs (although EXPs are better now than they've ever been - give them a go some time), and here's the big point of them; they hold the tone for an AGE. Don't be misled - if for some reason you don't like the tone when you put them on, you never will. They break every bit as easily as any other string. They're every bit as likely to fail due to manufacturing fault - no better, no worse. BUT those things are true of ALL strings, and if you don't beat them to snapping point with hamfisted technique (brutal strummers don't waste your money - you're not going to get any string to last with those heavy hands, might as well buy good uncoated ones you can replace individually) then you'll get, as it says on the box, at least 3 to 5 times the life span out of these than you would from uncoated strings before they start to sound worn and dull, probably more. And that is the point. I've actually repaired broken Elixirs when they snap at the bridge by retying them to the ball-end and pulling the untrimmed string down through the tuning peg, and they still sound sweet enough to get away with. So overall: coated strings may not be for you (expensive, break just as easily as uncoated, ARE NOT SOLD SINGLY remember), but if you want excellent tone that lasts then you can't do better than these. P.S. The one time in all those years I had a new string fail as I was tuning it up, I emailed a picture of it to Elixir directly and they replied within two days, apologised and sent me a new string and some daft little free bits and pieces - polishing cloth, plectrum and what have you. Nice customer service touch from an excellent company.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Which sets have  a plain G string?**
A: On the acoustic set I have the third string is wound. On sets for electric guitar the third string is plain.

**Q: Can I use the phosphor bronze hd lights on a electric guitar?**
A: No the HD lights are designed for acoustic guitars

**Q: Is there 3 sets of strings in this pack.. 9 altogether**
A: Oooops….Sorry!! There are 3 x packs of 12-53guage 6 string sets.  Seems like a good buy as these are for acoustic guitars which need replacing fairly regularly.

**Q: Would these strings suit a dreadnaught guitar? I'm looking for a warm, rich tone.**
A: Absolutely, depending on the model of guitar, the 12`s are excellent, if you have a Martin D28 the 13's give a deeper and louder sound. They may be expensive but they are excellent, beware of buying in eBay there are some fakers out there.
