Strings that last and last

Karnage 15.07.2018

These strings do cost significantly more than many other options, but only in the short term. The consistency of tone over not just months but years is seriously impressive. I have to buy the extra top C for my 6 string bass making it quite an investment, but I?d be paying so much more in an attempt to keep the tone up to scratch with any other make. I usually get a few years out of a set of these.
It could be that the sound of very new strings is not what you are after (not sure how you keep tone consistency in that case, not somewhere I?ve aimed for) you might get frustrated with how well these keep their sound.
It is also possible you play constantly with a pick, and this could wear the coating quicker in that area of the string, but you?d still get way more string life. I only use a pick on a few songs for effect, vast majority is finger playing.
Summary: If you want a lasting clear tone, these are the strings to get.

Made me fall in love with my bass

Mariano O. 02.09.2019

Last February I purchased a Harley Benton PJ-75 OW Vintage Series. I was really not connecting with the instrument but then I decided to try changing the strings. These strings made me completely fall in love with the bass. They feel much tighter in a good way. The b string rings much clearer. And the sound is just the right amount of bright. I hope they last as long as everyone says they do. Great investment in my honest opinion.

Simply Amazing Strings

Haik5 27.12.2021

i recently discovered this brand and i am now completely in love with it. I used to have Flatwounds because roundwounds were buzzing too much but overtime i missed the drive - flatwounds are too laid back- what i found with Elixir is that they are very well balanced. they sound deep and clean at the same time and very nice highs ! really recommend to try and see for yourself!
