Description
You know the feeling: strings sound killer for a week, then that dull, gunky deadness creeps in and you’re back to changing them again. Elixir tackles that problem differently than everyone else – instead of just coating the outside of the string, they coat the whole thing, sealing off the gaps between windings where grime and sweat usually settle in and choke your tone. Less time swapping sets, more time actually playing.
This Heavy gauge set (.012 .016 .024 .032 .042 .052) is built with nickel-plated steel wrap wire, giving you that bright, punchy, dynamic character electric players lean on for cutting through a mix. The NANOWEB coating here is Elixir’s thinner option, so under your fingers it feels close to a fresh uncoated string – natural texture, not slick or rubbery. If you’re after something smoother and warmer, Elixir’s POLYWEB coating is the alternative worth trying, though NANOWEB is the go-to for players who don’t want to feel like they’re playing coated strings at all.
- Nickel-plated steel wrap wire for bright, punchy tone with real dynamic response
- Ultra-thin NANOWEB coating keeps the traditional, uncoated string feel
- Full-coverage coating fights corrosion and gunk buildup between windings
- Extends tone life beyond coated or uncoated strings from other brands, per Elixir’s own player surveys
- Heavy gauge set: .012 .016 .024 .032 .042 .052
Grab a set, throw them on, and hear why so many players who used to swap strings weekly stretched that out considerably with Elixir.
