Because the previous DAddario EJ 16 0 12 was too rough to hold (alas, I broke my family in a few days-||), I specially ordered a set of legendary elixir 01string in Huayin. As we all know, the elixir string is the imperial string of many fingering masters. And many world-famous acoustic guitars use Elixir strings as acoustic strings (á lvarez/Yayili, Calvin, Lager, Lakewood, Marton, Santa Cruz, Schechter, Taylor, tom anderson ...). Elixir Strings has a special patent for antirust paint. Therefore, the life of this kind of string is 2-3 times longer than that of ordinary strings (some friends say that even if the elixir string is not changed for a year, it still looks very new and its timbre is great). Because of this advantage, the price of this string is high (the most expensive 180 yuan). However, according to the proportion that 50 yuan Martin used it for two months, if this string can be used for more than half a year, then the price is definitely worth it!
Finally, please pay attention when buying: the elixir string is mainly divided into two versions: brass and phosphor copper (it seems that brass is brighter than phosphor copper). I bought the NANOWEB version of phosphor copper (while brass has two versions: NANOWEB and POLYWEB). Because of the different coatings, NANOWEB is brighter and POLYWEB is softer.
