Elixir 3 Sets of 12002 Super Light Electric Strings (9-42) (Nanoweb)

I've been using Elixir strings for many, many years mainly on acoustic guitars. I recently acquired a couple of Fender Telecasters. I wanted a lighter gauge string for country style string bending and the Elixirs were rated high in a couple of comparisons I found on the web, so I ordered these. From the start, the sound and playability was excellent. Elixirs have a proven record of longevity, so I expect these to last a while. They cost more than most other brands, but I liken strings to tires. If you put premium tires on your car you notice an immediate improvement in the way the car drives. Same with premium strings. What's another $5 or $10 bucks per set when you know you're going to get excellent results.

These strings are phenomenal. They sound and feel great, and last forever. Other types of non-coated strings get corroded and grimy so quickly, I can keep these on for months with 2-3 hours of regular daily practice. The 3-pack is a great value. Elixirs seem expensive, but I save a lot of money over replacing uncoated strings every week!

Too many guitars! But these strings make it better; they last for months, sound great on just about every brand and bridge I’ve ever played on

I like the feel and sound of these strings, but the biggest selling point is the longevity for me. I hate changing guitar strings, and while these cost more money than a normal set they last way longer, not just in durability but in tone also. I would estimate these last 2-3 times longer for me than a cheaper regular set of strings, and I use a whammy bar quite a bit.

expensive, but worth it.
