Review: Impressed with how not squeaky these strings are - Having bought other flat wound strings that really let me down, I was looking for a mellow sounding string that didn’t squeak. These fit the bill, and sound great straight from the pack. No odd twangy brightness, really smooth Review: Elixir Strings - I remember when I started playing acoustic guitar everyone told me to buy Ernie Ball, D'addario, etc but since I've moved to these Elixir strings my whole playing world has changed, these strings are brilliant. And I'm not getting paid to say this (maybe I should) .They actually make me play better, but hey I don't care what you do really I'm just saying for me they're great. ## Features - Acoustic guitar strings constructed with 80/20 (80% copper, 20% zinc) bronze wrap wire - Played for a warm and robust tone that sounds “played-in” but still retains a remarkably clear mid-range presence - Original POLYWEB Coating provides a soft, smooth feel that keeps the strings from getting in the way of playing - Our patented coating technology protects against common corrosion, extending tone life longer than any other brand’s coated or uncoated strings (Elixir Strings player survey) ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0002E1NNM | | Best Sellers Rank | 430 in Musical Instruments & DJ ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments & DJ ) 37 in Guitar Strings | | Body Material Type | Bronze | | Brand | Elixir | | Brand Name | Elixir | | Coating Description | Coated | | Coating description | Coated | | Colour | 80/20 Bronze | | Country of Origin | USA | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 1,851 Reviews | | Finish Type | POLYWEB | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00733132110506 | | Included Components | No other components included | | Instrument | Acoustic Guitar | | Item Type Name | Strings for acoustic guitar | | Item Weight | 45 g | | Manufacturer | W.L.
