great strings... sound good & long lasting

I’ve been playing bass for a really long time and I can honestly tell you three main reasons why I continue to buy elixir strings over many years, and counting.. 1-They last forever. They really do. From sweat, dirt, and whatever else ends up on the strings they maintain a consistent tone and feel. For a test, I’ve had a set on a particular favorite bass I use and played multiple performances over summertime, both outdoor and indoor and they still didn’t need to be changed for almost 6 months. 2 - They have a great tone. I specifically use them on jazz, Pj, and humbucker driven basses and the tone is smooth with the appropriate bite and kick, when needed, be it driving, slap, or light touch. I especially like them on Jazz bass pick up configurations. 3- They feel smooth. It may not be everybody’s cup of tea, but when you play exacting bass lines for long periods, I feel my finger tips aren’t as fatigued or worn out compared to non-coated strings. Don’t get me wrong: non-coated rounds are awesome but elixirs are the perfect balance of string choice for me, all things considered.

I’ve been playing for 50 years, and I’ve tried all the usual suspects in bass strings, but once I got my hands on Elixirs, there was no turning back, because there is literally nothing on the market quite like them. Easy on the fingers, buttery smooth and easy to play, long lasting, and consistent quality from set to set. I prefer the 45-105 (45-130 for my 5-string) nickel plated, although you can get the stainless ones if you want a brighter sound. I use them on all five the basses I use regularly (Sire V10dx, Rickenbacker 4003, Yamaha TRBX605FM 5-string, Fender MIM Deluxe Precision P/J and my 1983 Guild Pilot. I play out pretty much every week, and get great tone and life out of these strings, often going 4-6 months before I change them out. They are so playable, they actually help my play faster and more precisely, across a wide variety of music. If they aren’t using them, I tell my fellow bass players all the time: try them! I wish everything we bought was of this high, consistent quality. If you are a gigging bass player and you’re serious about your gear, they are WELL WORTH the expense. Very highly recommended.

Absolutely fantastic strings. Priceless sound. Feel and playability are great. Should last quite a while.

Well worth the money in my opinion. I get great tones and longevity of these strings are great.

My Tobias bass had been neglected for awhile, so I decided it was long past time to put new strings on it and do a proper / complete set-up and adjustment on it. It was worth the effort. I'd suggest before installing the Elixir's, you do a truss rod adjustment using the old stings to determine height - if needed. THEN put these on and do your set-up and adjustment to your axe. These are round-wound and have a nice feel to them. I'm used to flat-wound, but wanted something a little brighter and these fit the bill nicely. These fit my long-scale bass with minimal trimming. No dead strings in the package. The sound is solid and a lot of the new string stretch was gone in the first 72 hours. The 135 low B string IS beefy, but fit through the bridge without too much fuss. I DID have to file the nut a hair to get it to seat firmly, but nothing excessive. So far, I'm very pleased with these new strings.

As soon as I got these strings, I put them on my Breedlove acoustic bass. Once plugged in, I was sooo full of joy. This is the mellow tone I’ve been looking for. I play in a church setting a lot, and these are perfect. If you are looking for punch and growl, these are not for you.

I just installed these on my bass after playing for a few months on the strings that came with the bass. I immediately noticed a difference in sound quality and ease of playing. The strings almost feel wet to the touch and are easier on my fingers.

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.
