Elixir Strings

Today I wanna talk about strings. For years and years I was a die hard GHS Progressive fan. I found that the Progressives gave me an edge that no other strings could. Then when I could no longer find Progressives locally I switched to Ernie Ball Cobalts. All of these are good strings but they all shared one common flaw they rusted profusely. No matter how much I wiped them down after playing they would still be flat, rusted, and dead after just a few hours of play time. This became frustrating and expensive for me since I play a lot. So in a desperate attempt to find a better alternative I started the journey to find a suitable replacement for my beloved Progressives. I've known about Elixirs for years and have tried them in the past but my first experiences were not good. The first coating they had was the polyweb this stuff is thick, slick, and in my opinion detrimental to you're over all tone. To my ears it seemed to bleed off much of the highs and high mids from the guitars tone but seeing how I was desperate to squeeze more life from my strings and Elixir had come out with the much thinner Nano coating I thought I would give them a try. After purchasing and installing the strings I was blown away. I have had this one set of strings on my guitar for over a year now!! The thinner Nano coating effects the tone characteristics of my guitar far less than the thicker Polyweb and they still feel and look new. I've been beating the heck out of these strings. I've played and sweated for hours on these things and they are still running strong. After trying these I probably won't be buying anything else. If you're tired of replacing strings more often than you think you should I  think it's time you to try Elixir Nanowebs they have made me and my wallet very happy.
