I've tried Elixir Strings.. I liked 'em a lot... but I hate the sound of brand new strings, and Elixir's never sound that bright...

My big beef with them is that I rarely replace strings becasue they wear out or tarnish... rather i replace 'em becasue I break 'em... Nothing sucks more than breaking a brand new $20.00 Elixir D string on the 3 song of the 2nd set...

So I'll stick to plain old $5.00 Martin Medium guage strings for everyday grunt playng and keep Elixirs for concerts and recording...
