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!

Strings are nice and bright on my Stratocaster. Once stretched out, they stay in tune pretty well.

I've been using these strings forever—I can't remember how long. To me, they are just the best. I play gigs once a week and play almost every day at home, and these last me almost a year. Granted, I rotate three guitars. I don't like overly bright strings, so they work for me. The tension is just perfect (on 25.5-scale guitars). They are smooth, consistent, and just sound so good to me. When I play a new guitar with D'addarios or Ernie Balls, they feel like low-quality wires. I also have Elixirs on my acoustics, and they are perfect as well, and they last at least a year for me.

I've been using these on my guitars for over 20 years now. When I buy a new guitar, the first thing I do is put a set of these on it. They feel great under the fingers, they sound like new strings for months even though I play for a couple of hours almost every day, and I can count on one hand the number of times I've had a break that wasn't due to something like a saddle / post burr despite my flagrant j-rock unison bending antics. Also, if you've got a nickel allergy like I do, Elixirs are 100% your best option.Some people balk at the price, but that's just silly; the money you save from replacing your strings 1/3 as often will more than offset the added cost per pack.

Don't ever buy cheap strings! I played with a cheaper brand strings and it's like night and day! These strings are much more gentle to the fingers and doesn't eat up the pick! The durability is extremely good! I play alot of metal and can't recall snapping a string for a long time. In my opinion works great for metal as well as clean play. I bought a set just in case whenever that will be...

I have a couple dozen electric guitars that I play regularly (and more that get played less often). Elixir strings sound great and stay that way much longer than most other strings. If it weren't for Elixirs, I'd spend more time changing strings than rehearsing. I highly recommend them.
