Nickel Plated Steel

Fantastic lively Nickel strings for a bright warm modern tone. Sounds huge after EQ and Compression. I cant comment on the longevity of the Nickel Elixirs but ive had Stainless Steel Elixirs on my bass for the last 6 months and they sound just as good as they did when I first installed them, expecting the same for these.

Beautiful strings and definitely worth the price. Being a professional musician in the '60s early '70s I recently decided to take up the instrument again for my own amusement. Not being available when I was a pro these strings were new to me ( I used to use La Bella back in the day). Supposedly they were less punishing on the fingertips and last longer. They certainly are easy to play with no cuts to the fingers after lots of slides eg Come Together -The Beatles. They are more like a nylon string to play, with a smooth silky finish. They also have a rich full tone which being a La Bella aficionado I particularly like. As for longevity. If, as they say, they last a working musician at least six months I probably wont ever have to buy another set. I'll ask my grandson to update this review in 25 years, HeHe. I would definitely buy these again. Oh by the way the instrument I have them on is a four string Overwater Classic "J" bass.

I've used these strings for many years after trying a fair variety of other brands. When new they don't have that excessively bright tone of new round wound strings, so if you like that sound and are prepared to keep buying new sets, then go with that. When I used to get non coated strings the tone would start out very bright and then just keep getting worse for ever. What I like about nano web is they start out with the sound of a slightly played in set and then pretty much stay that way forever. I have mostly gone several years between changes and even then it is because eventually they break, as do all strings in the end, but they still sound fine up to that point. They are quite an expensive string in the first place but they last way longer and I'm sure they cost less in the long run.

I've had many brands of strings in the past and thought these were expensive compared to some. Thought I'd give them a try anyway and I can honestly say I'm very, very impressed with them! My god... Had them on for over 4 weeks now, played every other day for a couple of hours and they still sound crisp and bright with no muted low, or top end. They seem highly versatile and can produce some great sounds whatever genre you're going at. Going from some Ernie Ball to these you can feel the difference in the texture of the string, very comfortable and easy on your fingers. Strongly recommend as they seem they will last a good while, and all the aforementioned. Top quality in my experience and will definitely buy again.

Elixir nanoweb coated strings are designed to retain their tone up to about 4x longer than conventional strings. On acoustic guitars, it is often observed that these kind of strings are duller when new than conventional strings, though guitars such as Taylors are now being designed with the particular characteristics of the string in mind. These bass strings, though, are easily as bright and bouncy when new as most bass players would wish for, and retain a brighter tone for much longer, as with their acoustic guitar cousins. These strings do cost about three times as much as a set of conventional strings, and experience with Elixirs suggests they are no less likely to break, so these would not be a good investment for players who regularly break strings -- though, with bass guitar, regularly breaking strings is almost certainly a sign of a sharp edge somewhere on the bridge or fretboard. For those who like to have a consistently good tone throughout the life of the string, and want to avoid the week or so of 'zingyness' which accompanies new strings, these are ideal, and well worth the extra. Strongly recommended for serious players. -- A note on gauge. These are Mediums, 0.045 to 0.105, rather than the 0.040 Lights that many people play with. On bass guitar there is no particular reason why Medium should be a problem, and heavier strings should normally give better tone. However, a bass with already very high action which for some reason cannot be lowered would not be suitable for going up a string gauge.

Meant for Taylor Guitar. Nice on my fingers. Best string money can buy. Could be cheaper

Great string, the nanoweb coating has been a big leap forward since the brands previous coating they used. Almost undetectable, seemingly impenetrable and have a rounded ,crisp tone to them. I can get well over 12months of heavy use out of these strings until I notice they’re ready for a change .

Great strings. Wouldn't use anything on else. Nice bright tone that lasts

Für mich die Nummer eins bei Gitarren oder Basssaiten

Nikel siparişim çelik ve 5 tel olarak geldi. Ürün kutusu yıpranmış ve ıslanmıştı. Orjinal olduğundan şüpheliyim. Bu sebeple iade ettim.

Cordas excelentes! O timbre permanece brilhante e consistente por vários meses. Nas primeiras semanas, aparecem algumas manchas visíveis, mas isso não afeta em nada o som. Ideais para quem gosta de slap: oferecem agudos potentes junto com graves profundos. Já para estilos como reggae, onde agudos excessivos não são necessários, talvez outras marcas sejam mais adequadas. Recomendo muito!

ゴールドでした。音も良い！

High quality strings meant only for pros, it lasts as much as 3 times longer than normal nickel strings. Indeed value for money.
