I'm a little perplexed about some of the issues sited in the other reviews, since I have been using these for a few years now with no worries. Most 'good' strings dramatically loose their shine (especially for recording) in a few days. These hold their excellent tone very well, and I don't need to change them nearly as often. I use a wide variety of standard and custom tunings for my work, and have not had a problem with string breakage - period. Keep making them this good, and I'll keep buying them... going to my local GC for a set today. Cheers!
I absolutely love the way these strings sound and feel. They have the brightest sound and they last about 2 or times longer than your average acoustic string. The downside? Elixer acoustic strings are more exspensive than your average acoustic string. For any serious guitar player this shouldn't be a big issue. My main problem with the elixers is that they are horrible for detuning. I play a lot of funky tunings where I'll raise or drop my strings 2-3 steps. It never fails, the high E string and the G string always break when I detune. So In short if I were keeping my guitar in standard tuning or drop D only I would keep my acoustic strung with these, unfortunately with the amount of detuning I do and the price point of these strings it makes it difficult to warrant the purchse of them
At one point I couldn't get through a show without the G string breaking. Spent money having my bridge looked at by 2 luthiers to no avail. They always break at the bridge. On my HD28, D35 and Taylor. I thought I had bought some from a 'bad lot' but it doesn't go away, always the G, at the bridge, durn near every show. But the tone is exemplary...the 'longevity' of tone doesn't do much for me if I can only get 2-3 hours of good playing before I have to buy another $5.00 single string. So there is stopping in the middle of a song, changing the string, very awkward, just about every perfomance - @ one venue folks mention how weird it is if I actually get through a night without breaking one...that's pretty weak.
