Guitar Strings

Set of 6 strings for Super Light 9-42 electric guitar. The new Optiweb for a cleaner, more precise sound, with a feel like uncoated strings, a natural touch and an ideal grip, all without sacrificing the signature Elixir strings, their exceptional sonic life. This featherweight coating allows the string to vibrate more freely, while providing a firm grip so you can keep control of your bends, vibratos and sustain.

The Elixir brand is continuing to develop its range of coated strings with the launch of Optiweb, strings that produce classic natural tones while offering completely natural comfort AND long life!
The new Optiweb strings square the circle by combining the feel and sound of premium strings with a coating that ensures durability unrivalled in the world of electric guitars.
The new Elixir Optiweb strings change the game with an exclusive process that makes the coating transparent both to the touch and to the ear. In a nutshell, guitarists will rediscover the feel and clear, crisp sound of an uncoated string, but will also benefit from an incredible lifespan - a source of savings, of course, but also a way of saving themselves the trouble of string assembly, which is always too frequent and demanding!
The Optiweb coating covers the entire string, not just the outer surface of the thread but also the gaps between the turns where debris accumulates and alters the sound over time. In the same way, the Anti-Rust coating on unspun strings guarantees them extraordinary longevity!

  • A clean, precise sound, a natural feel and an ideal grip, all without sacrificing Elixir's signature exceptional sound life. Compared to the NANOWEB and POLYWEB coatings, the OPTIWEB coating offers a more natural and familiar feel. This featherweight coating allows the string to vibrate more freely, while providing a firm grip that lets you keep control of your bends, vibratos and sustain.
Since its beginnings in the 90's as a pioneer in coated string technology, Elixir has continued to evolve to meet the expectations and needs of guitarists around the world. Their continuous efforts to provide an outstanding sound life have led us to be the leader in this very market, without sacrificing the sound and feel that users love. It's a mission that has made Elixir the leading brand of strings for acoustic guitar. And maybe soon electric!

Unlike other brands, the coating on Elixir strings covers the entire string. Not only is the outer surface of the string protected, but also the hollows between the turns of the purfling where dirt has a habit of accumulating and killing the sound like on other brands of guitar strings. The Anti-Rust plating on the treble strings ensures extended sound life throughout the entire set.
