Elixir Strings revolutionized guitar strings by finding a way to extend the life of wound strings without compromising the tone. Polyweb coated strings have a balanced tone and smooth response - they sound like strings that have been "played in". In addition, Polyweb coated strings feel comfortably smooth and help reduce finger squeaks.
With so many on offer these days, it is great to have a name you can trust. This item is certainly that and will be a perfect buy. The distributor have added some great touches and this equals great value.

It depends...
There's NO SUCH THING as a "best string". From experimenting over the years, I've found that, while I have "old standbys" that will be the first thing I try, often there is a string that is just right for a particular guitar and it varies from guitar to guitar.
Coated strings have become all the rage over the last few years. They're expensive, but they last a lot longer, especially if you have the kind of body chemistry that causes them to corrode quickly. Also, they minimize the amount of finger noise you get if you slide on the strings.
Elixir Polywebs were the first coated string. The coating is much heavier than that of other strings. This produces a much less bright, more muted sound. I have an old koa guitar that is so bright I can't stand it with standard strings. The Elixir Polywebs tone it down to the point where it's perfect.
If you're looking for a darker sound, then Elixir Polywebs are definitely worth a shot. If you want a coated...

Elixir's Have Become Our Standard
These acoustic strings are used on a Laguna acoustic guitar. They are just the right weight, and just the right amount of flex. We've tried D'Addario, brighter sound (D'Addario Acoustic Guitar Strings Set, EXP 80/20 Lite), and Martin, a little stiff (Martin Strings SP Phosphor Bronze 12.5-55 MSP4150). In the end, these Elixirs sound and feel best on this guitar.
As has been said, there is no perfect guitar string for everyone. The perfect guitar string is the one that feels and sounds right to you on your guitar. For the combination we have, these are outstanding strings.
On the strings lasting longer, that's hard to say. Fresh strings do sound better. It's clear that the wound strings do not corrode like non-coated strings. But I'm not certain these last so much longer. We buy them because they sound good and have the...
Eternal strings
I love the way these strings sound and they last forever. No. They really do.
My acoustic has had the same strings for 2 years. 2 years!! That's absurd. They still sound good, too. In fact, they sound better than they did new because they have lost that tinny "new-string" sound. Now they sound like normal phosphor bronze strings that have been on a guitar for 3 weeks.
I was traveling in Europe with one of my guitars that had a 2-month old set of strings. Somebody plucked a few notes and looked up to exclaim, "new strings"! I kind of laughed to myself. These strings have completely changed what I consider to be a "new" set.
Granted, they are not cheap, so if you break strings a lot it can get expensive. Clearly, I do not break strings a lot, so for me they are awesome.
