Elixir 16550 Optiweb Electric Guitar Strings, Super Light, 9-42, 3-Pack

Elixir strings are a top - seller on today's market. They come with Nanoweb and Polyweb coatings, offering various string types and gauges to suit every player's taste. The coating gives a balanced tone and a smooth, responsive feel, reducing finger squeak. It also protects against sweat and grime, lasting 3 - 5 times longer than ordinary strings. This means you'll buy fewer sets and change them less often, saving you money. Optiweb coating is an advancement in Elixir’s coated string technology. It's perfect for uncoated string players who thought coated strings sacrificed feel and tone for longevity. Optiweb offers a coated string that lasts as long as others but feels and sounds almost like a non - coated one. Features: Pack of 3, Gauge: .009 .011 .016 .024 .032 .042.

Using these Elixir Optiweb guitar strings is easy. First, remove your old strings from the guitar. Then, start by attaching the thickest string at the tuning peg and thread it through the bridge. Tune it to the right pitch. Repeat this process for the remaining strings. When changing strings, be gentle to avoid damaging the guitar. As for maintenance, after each use, wipe the strings with a clean, dry cloth to remove sweat and dirt. This will help keep the Optiweb coating in good condition and extend the strings' lifespan. If you notice any signs of wear or if the tone starts to degrade, it's time to change the strings. Store the extra packs in a cool, dry place to prevent them from getting damaged.
