Review: 10/10 - These are the best quality strings I’ve ever used. Other brands’ strings usually start to corrode after 2 weeks of use. These strings don’t even show wear until a couple of months of use. They have a great sound and they feel great.
Review: Best strings I've ever purchased - I got my first set of these strings Oct 5th 2022 here we are 2 months short of 3 years and the high E string broke so I'm here to get a new set. Best money I ever spent on guitar strings. The strings still sound amazing if the high e hadn't broke I wouldn't even be replacing them yet.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will these work on a Martin acoustic/electric guitar?**
A: The Martin acoustic guitar owners I know, all use Martin strings.
 The Elixir. 9/42 coated strings work great on my Stratocaster and they last much longer than other brands.

**Q: Is the 3rd string wound?**
A: Not in the.009 Guage set, but I can't attest to the heavier sets of Elixir's, some brands may indicate a wound 3rd...

**Q: Can you use these with locking tuner keys?**
A: Absolutely. Even easier and faster string changes.

**Q: Is the coating a different material than the polyweb and nanoweb? Or is it the same material, just thinner?**
A: I think it's thinner, at least it feels thinner...

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best strings I've ever purchased
*by A***D on August 1, 2025*

I got my first set of these strings Oct 5th 2022 here we are 2 months short of 3 years and the high E string broke so I'm here to get a new set. Best money I ever spent on guitar strings. The strings still sound amazing if the high e hadn't broke I wouldn't even be replacing them yet.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Must have for floating trem systems!
*by A***R on February 9, 2025*

High quality strings with a long life and stellar tone. Have been a Slinky guy the whole 25 years of playing. Recently purchased a Double locking trem system, and didn't want strings that go dull after a few practices since setting up a floating bridge is fairly time consuming. These strings go a long long way. Only change them when one breaks. Even a new string when an older set matches tone once broken in, which only takes about a week so you don't need to change the whole every time a string breaks. More money up front saves you a bunch of money down the road with Elixirs. And the tone and feel is top notch! If you have a floating trem system I highly recommend using Elixir!
