About Elixir:

Elixir Strings are currently among the most sought-after and popular among musicians worldwide. This American company was founded in 1995, but at that time, it had nothing to do with strings. It primarily focused on developing extremely high-quality audio cables.

However, the Elixir team included guitarists who came up with the idea of producing guitar strings that would have perfect sound and exceptional longevity and resistance to damage and wear. During the lengthy development process, Elixir encountered many dead ends in selecting materials, whether it was nylon, polyurethane, or rare precious metals.

The engineers at Elixir decided to take a different approach. In a lab equipped with the latest devices, they analyzed the properties of dozens of popular string types to determine what makes a good string. The first prototypes were sent to over 15,000 guitarists who could provide crucial feedback on the performance of the first Elixir strings in practice. These strings underwent the most demanding test evaluated by the most critical subject – the musician's ear.

The initial result and the first mass-produced model became the Elixir Polyweb strings, which were and are offered in versions for electric and acoustic guitars, bass guitars, banjos, and mandolins. They were followed by the improved Elixir Nanoweb. Both types share the same technology: the core of the strings made from the most suitable metal alloys is coated with a thin layer of polymers that protect the strings from wear, corrosion, and dirt. As a result, Elixir strings last up to 5 times longer than standard strings.
