Overview

Not an uncoated set, these Elixir strings combine a phosphor bronze body with a Nanoweb polymer coating. The pack holds three sets in a custom light gauge for acoustic guitar.

Elixir presents the coating as the way to pair phosphor bronze warmth and sparkle with extended tone life. Three sets in one pack cover several restringings. The listing stops short of giving each string gauge, weight or warranty terms.

Who it's for

Guitarists who restring regularly and want coated strings to hold their tone longer. Anyone who prefers uncoated wire, or wants the full gauge breakdown, should look elsewhere.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Phosphor bronze warmth and sparkle

  • Three sets per pack
  • Custom light gauge
Cons
  • Individual gauges not listed

Performance notes

The coating wraps the phosphor bronze winding, which the maker credits for extended tone life. Phosphor bronze supplies the warm, sparkling voice listed, and the custom light gauge governs tension and finger effort. Beyond the range in the title, no string-by-string gauges are given.
