Elixir Nanoweb Acoustic Guitar strings are coated in a unique way to protect wound strings from all contaminants. 

A flexible, strong, yet micro-thin polymer tube defends the critical zone of tone from invading enemies. Nothing (including the coating) gets between the windings.

Elixir strings sound great 3 to 5 times longer than ordinary strings, have a balanced tone with smooth response, feel comfortably smooth and reduce finger squeak. After experiencing Elixir strings it's hard to go back to the old way of life.
