They have the bright tone and punch of non-coated strings. All this and they still feel like traditional stringsElixir Nanoweb Acoustic String FeaturesGreat Sound that lasts 3 to 5 times longer than ordinary stringsBright tone and punch like that of non-coated stringsThe Same Feel you get from Traditional StringsWhat causes ordinary strings to go deadYou do. Every time you pick up your guitar and play, you leave tiny bits of dead skin, body oils, sweat, and all types of gunk loitering on your strings. Stuck between the windings (a space Elixir calls theCritical Zone of Tone), these contaminants dampen vibration and accelerate corrosion. The result Strings that are dead, rough and dirty.The Cure for the Common String.Elixir Strings are coated in a unique way to protect wound strings from your DNA and other contaminants. A flexible, strong, yet micro-thin polymer tube defends the Critical Zone of Tone from invading enemies. Nothing (including the coating) gets between the windings. The result Strings that sound and feel their best three to five times longer than ordinary strings.The Choice is YoursElixir Strings are available in two different flavors. Both deliver the same long life, but differ in tone and feel. | | | Product Details: | | | Product Length:

 Easy to play but has an artificial soundJun 05, 2010
It's a joy to play on these strings. The soft coating lasts very long and they don't get dirty as quickly as the other strings that I have owned. You can painlessly slide your fingers up and down the neck as much as you like. However, the sound doesn't have enough presence. I have a Yamaha FG-series acoustic guitar which sounds absolutely amazing, but with these strings it sounds a bit more like an electric guitar. High notes sounds okay, but notes on the low E, A, and D strings don't have a warm and full sound. Good choice if you mainly play Pop with barre chords down the neck, but not for open chords and the dirty, slightly distorted blues sound you expect from an Acoustic guitar when you pick and slap those lower strings hard.

 great strings, but don't pound them too hardMay 30, 2010
Elixir strings are, I think, the best out there. I've tried many over the last 30 odd years and I now use them exclusively on both electric and acoustic guitars. The only problem I have with them (this has nothing to do with the quality) is that if you're playing live and you start to hammer on them hard and then break one, the cost of replacing a whole set can be kind of a bummer. Otherwise I highly recommend them.

G string problems continueFeb 17, 2010
Same problem as some others, I bought a set for my acoustic just to check it out, G string gives me problems, feels different from other strings after a shorter period and seems to go out of tune more. I thought it was just my guitar but guess I am not the only one.

 Great strings, bad seller?Feb 09, 2010
First of all, I love these strings. I played on polywebs for a while, and now I'm using the nanowebs, and I'll use nothing else.
I usually buy them at my local guitar center for about a buck or two more than the price here. These strings arrived already oxidized, like they were years old or had been opened once already and left open to the elements. They had a very dull sound - very uncharacteristic of these strings. Would not order these from Amazon again.
