Review: 10/10 - These are the best quality strings I’ve ever used. Other brands’ strings usually start to corrode after 2 weeks of use. These strings don’t even show wear until a couple of months of use. They have a great sound and they feel great.
Review: Best strings I've ever purchased - I got my first set of these strings Oct 5th 2022 here we are 2 months short of 3 years and the high E string broke so I'm here to get a new set. Best money I ever spent on guitar strings. The strings still sound amazing if the high e hadn't broke I wouldn't even be replacing them yet.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: At what point on the size scale does the 3-string (G) become a wound string?  Individual string dimension should be stated in the specs.**
A: Usually a wound 3rd is clearly stated on strings packaging, as that is a salient feature. You will find this often in electric sets 12-52, usually labelled "Heavy" or "Jazz." In most cases the wound G string starts at .021 or .022, but I've seen sets that wind the g at .018-.019. I know this is more general info and not related to Elixir, but I'm guessing it applies to their strings, too.

**Q: Are these 1 set? Last time I bought them they were $3 a set.**
A: Yes. This is for one set. I'm pretty sure these strings were never available for $3/set. Maybe it was a different brand of strings?

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best strings I've ever purchased
*by A***D on August 1, 2025*

I got my first set of these strings Oct 5th 2022 here we are 2 months short of 3 years and the high E string broke so I'm here to get a new set. Best money I ever spent on guitar strings. The strings still sound amazing if the high e hadn't broke I wouldn't even be replacing them yet.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Must have for floating trem systems!
*by A***R on February 9, 2025*

High quality strings with a long life and stellar tone. Have been a Slinky guy the whole 25 years of playing. Recently purchased a Double locking trem system, and didn't want strings that go dull after a few practices since setting up a floating bridge is fairly time consuming. These strings go a long long way. Only change them when one breaks. Even a new string when an older set matches tone once broken in, which only takes about a week so you don't need to change the whole every time a string breaks. More money up front saves you a bunch of money down the road with Elixirs. And the tone and feel is top notch! If you have a floating trem system I highly recommend using Elixir!
