Description
Elixir built its reputation on a simple idea: coat the whole string, not just the wound part, and you stop grime and moisture from working into the gaps between windings. That’s exactly what happens with this Nickel Plated Steel set wrapped in Elixir’s ultra-thin NANOWEB Coating. The result is an electric string that still sounds like a traditional nickel set – full of presence, punch, and character – but resists the tone-deadening corrosion that dulls strings string after string.
- Whole-string protection – Elixir is the only major coated brand to seal the entire string, not just the outer wrap
- Longer-lasting tone – players consistently note their tone holds up longer than with any other coated or uncoated string
- Reliable from the first note – consistent feel and pitch stability every time you pick up the guitar
- Smooth, low-friction playing surface that’s gentle on fingers and helps with speed and bends
- Quieter fret and slide movement, with less finger squeak for both stage and studio use
- Anti-rust plating on the plain steel strings adds extra corrosion resistance across the whole set
This particular set is gauged Medium, 11-49, giving you a bit more girth and low-end push than a light set while still remaining comfortable under the fingers. Because the coating extends usable string life, you’re changing strings less often, spending less on replacements, and spending more time actually playing.
