Elixir Strings Electric Guitar Strings, 6 String, Light POLYWEB Coating

Q: Can you confirm the packaging says "with anti-rust plain steels"?

the set I ordered had the anti rust plain steels, these strings last quite a while but the high e string always seems to weaken after about a month and just snaps, even though all the strings still sound fresh when this happens. i have tried 5 sets of Elixir polywebs and every single set the high e gives up on me and snaps after about 4 or 5 weeks

Q: I have a buzz on the D string 14 fret that I didn't have before. Anyone experience this after stringing up their guitar?

I'm assuming you put on same gauge strings for it not to be a problem before you restringed the guitar and it only one string in the middle where the neck meets the body I think it's your action and check intonation but that's weird only the d string 🤨

Q: I don't know what went wrong. A string broke under a week after I put the polyweb mediums on. Why did this happen?

The only thing that I know of to cause that is over tension. Which I have done in the past by not realizing that I was tuning the string an octave higher that I should have. I don't remember which string it was but I had over tighten it while watching the tuner and tuned to the wrong octave. The string broke the next day, I ask a luthier what could have happened, he gave me the probable cause. When I replaced the string I was more careful tuning and realized that he was right I had over tighten the string. So that is something to consider as a possible cause. Since that happened a few years ago I have change many strings and never had it happen again.

Q: Why is this cheaper than nanoweb coating? Also is the coating poisonous in any way?

They last longer than nanoweb. I like them better

Literally the best guitar strings

I'm an intermediate guitar player. I used this set for my ibanez electric guitar and I must say that it's really awesome. Good song, and it has that smooth feel for fast playing. Go for it...

Definitely Orginal! And super slick! Just amazing

I wanted to try these for a long time, and these feel amazing! The coating is prominent and only original strings from Elixir has proper coating, some fakes are available so beware!Strings are super smooth and feels great, Let's see how long it will last! Only 10-46's I could find was polyweb, If you're looking for less coating and more natural steel feel then go for Optiweb.(Seen some guitarist using these for almost an year and they sound and feel the same, as they claim...let's see.)Update- The 5th string had a small rust since time of purchase and now after 2 months I guess it started to get corrode from inside..(weird that only one string has such issue!) Do check before the return period is over!
