The perfect compromise for fans of uncoated strings
Elixir Optiweb strings were designed for musicians accustomed to uncoated strings but who want better longevity. While some coatings can alter the feel or give a thicker sensation, Optiweb focuses on a more natural surface, closer to what your fingers already know. The result: a string that maintains an open and authentic tone, while providing the advantages of a protective treatment without disrupting your dynamics, attacks, and nuances.
