Elixir's Electric Nickel - Plated Steel Strings with OPTIWEB Coating offer the same crisp tone and natural feel as uncoated strings, along with the well - known long - lasting tone life of Elixir Strings. The OPTIWEB Coating not only gives a natural touch but also protects against corrosion and debris, making the tone last even longer. Features include: delivering a crisp tone like uncoated strings, having a natural feel due to the OPTIWEB Coating, being made of nickel - plated steel wrap wire, offering better protection against corrosion and debris than other brands' strings thanks to the coating technology, having anti - rust plating on plain steel strings for a longer - lasting set, allowing you to spend more time making music with fewer string changes, and coming in gauges of .009, .011, .016, .026, .036, .046.
Using these Elixir guitar strings is straightforward. Just install them on your electric guitar like you would with any other strings. When it comes to maintenance, keep your guitar clean after each use to prevent debris from building up on the strings. Avoid exposing the guitar to extreme humidity or temperature changes as this can cause corrosion. If you notice a significant drop in tone quality, it might be time to change the strings. But thanks to the OPTIWEB Coating and anti - rust plating, you won't need to change them as often as other strings. Remember, less time changing strings means more time making music!
