The perfect compromise between coated strings and "traditional" feel
The Elixir Electric String Optiweb 59 are designed for electric guitarists who appreciate the sound and feel of uncoated strings but want to benefit from the protection provided by Elixir technology. Thanks to the Optiweb coating, the sensation is more natural than on the Nanoweb or Polyweb series, while maintaining a clear response, precise attack, and a sound very close to uncoated strings. A relevant choice for those seeking electric guitar strings capable of withstanding expressive playing, while keeping a familiar feel and great definition, even with heavier gauge setups.
