Description
Snap a string mid-set and you don’t need a whole new pack — just grab the exact gauge you lost. This is a single .036 Elixir Electric Nickel Plated Steel string with POLYWEB coating, the original coated string that started the whole “strings that don’t die in a week” movement.
What makes POLYWEB different from raw wound strings is the feel: that thicker coating rounds off the sharp edges of the winding, so your fretting hand glides instead of squeaking every time you shift position. It also slows down the grime, sweat, and oxidation that dull tone and kill sustain on uncoated strings, so this single string keeps its warmth and clarity way past when a bare string would’ve gone flat and lifeless.
Don’t mistake smooth for muted, though — POLYWEB still delivers the punch and top-end bite you expect from a bright nickel-plated string, just with a broken-in, already-played feel from the first strum.
- Nickel plated steel wound construction
- POLYWEB coating for extended life and smoother feel
- .036 gauge single string
- Retains the bright, punchy tone of uncoated strings
- Reduces finger squeak on wound strings
Keep a few of these in your gig bag — a busted low string shouldn’t end your set or force you to break in a whole fresh pack early.
