Elixir strings offer long life and a fantastic tone.
They are coated with a special material developed by Gore which prohibits the ingress of grease and grime attacking the wound strings. This in turn significantly prolongs the
'as new' tone for many times longer than uncoated strings.
The Polyweb strings have slightly thicker coating than Elixir Nanoweb strings. These Polyweb strings provide a slik silky feel which minimises string finger noise and squeak pariticularly when sliding on the wound strings.
