Description
Every string set starts alive and eventually goes dull — Elixir just makes that dull day take a lot longer to arrive. This 80/20 Bronze set wears Elixir’s NANOWEB coating, an ultra-thin barrier wrapped around the entire string, not just tucked into the winding gaps like most coated brands manage. Sweat, skin oils and stage grime slide right off instead of packing into the coils and choking your tone.
Tonally, 80/20 Bronze is the classic bright, articulate acoustic voice — lots of top-end shimmer and snap when the strings are fresh, which is exactly the character NANOWEB is built to hold onto. You get that lively, present sound night after night instead of the slow fade into thud that untreated bronze is famous for.
Feel-wise, NANOWEB keeps things smooth and slick under the fingers, so fretting hand squeaks stay quiet — a real bonus if you’re recording or just tired of hearing your own hand noise on a quiet passage. The plain steel strings in the set are anti-rust plated too, so corrosion isn’t sneaking up on the unwound strings while the coated ones stay pristine.
Less time swapping strings, more time actually playing them — that’s the whole pitch here.
