Elixir Nanoweb Light Phosphor Br. 3P

I am very happy with these strings! Some guitarists don't like that very new zing when putting on new strings but I do, and with these strings they stay bright longer. The Nanoweb is a less intrusive coating than the Polyweb. You are aware that they are coated compared to non-treated strings but to be honest, regular strings usually go very dull with my acidic sweat after just a few days so although these cost more they are way better value in the long term. The 3 for 2 packets make them even better value for money.

I use the Elixirs not only because of the oxide resistance, but also because they are smooth at the surface. This gives me far less squeaks playing up and down the neck.
I wear down the strings long before they would start to 'rust', especially the G-string that forms grooves from the frets.
4 stars regarding quality is because I've gotten sets containing a string that can't be tuned!

I have a Taylor guitar and they fit these strings as standard to all their guitars. However as a gigging musician, I found them a little too expensive as they were costing between €14 & €17 per set. I play pub gigs about 6-8 times per week & play hard sometimes so I occasionally break strings. This made the cost a little prohibitive as opening a set to use 1 string leads to having to change the whole set when the gig is over making the benefit of the long life somewhat moot. They are excellent sounding strings and do stay cleaner & playable for longer than other brands.

I am delighted they put them in 3 packs at a more affordable price and would be happier if they put them in packs of 10. Also, if they reduced the price a little more then they would pick up way more customers like myself. Smaller margin but way bigger volume of sales. Almost all of my peers locally feel the same way. At the right price point I would think every guitar player would probably use these! They are worth €10 a set all day long!

Anyway, thank you Thomann for supplying at an affordable price!
