Review: New favourite string set. - Fantastic lively Nickel strings for a bright warm modern tone. Sounds huge after EQ and Compression. I cant comment on the longevity of the Nickel Elixirs but ive had Stainless Steel Elixirs on my bass for the last 6 months and they sound just as good as they did when I first installed them, expecting the same for these.
Review: For ever and ever... - Beautiful strings and definitely worth the price. Being a professional musician in the '60s early '70s I recently decided to take up the instrument again for my own amusement. Not being available when I was a pro these strings were new to me ( I used to use La Bella back in the day). Supposedly they were less punishing on the fingertips and last longer. They certainly are easy to play with no cuts to the fingers after lots of slides eg Come Together -The Beatles. They are more like a nylon string to play, with a smooth silky finish. They also have a rich full tone which being a La Bella aficionado I particularly like. As for longevity. If, as they say, they last a working musician at least six months I probably wont ever have to buy another set. I'll ask my grandson to update this review in 25 years, HeHe. I would definitely buy these again. Oh by the way the instrument I have them on is a four string Overwater Classic "J" bass.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: will these be long enough for a ‘through body’ set up? or are they ‘top load’ only?**
A: I use these strings on my Musicman Stingray 4 and Stingray 5 basses. Both are long scale basses at 34.5" (88cm) from nut to bridge. When stringing either bass, the longest string from bridge to nut is the D string. I tend to cut around 4" (10cm) off the length of this string to create three turns on the binding post of the tuner for the D string. The other strings require more than this to be cut to suitable length. So, in summary, at around 52" length uncut, I'd say these strings are likely to be long enough for your 'through body' bass. BTW: these strings have fantastic depth of tone, really cut through the mix, plus really fast and smooth to play for round wounds. Oh, and they keep their tone for yonks. But that's one of the main selling points for Elixir of course. Hope that's of some help.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Ideal Bass Strings
*by F***L on 1 December 2012*

I've used these strings for many years after trying a fair variety of other brands. When new they don't have that excessively bright tone of new round wound strings, so if you like that sound and are prepared to keep buying new sets, then go with that. When I used to get non coated strings the tone would start out very bright and then just keep getting worse for ever. What I like about nano web is they start out with the sound of a slightly played in set and then pretty much stay that way forever. I have mostly gone several years between changes and even then it is because eventually they break, as do all strings in the end, but they still sound fine up to that point. They are quite an expensive string in the first place but they last way longer and I'm sure they cost less in the long run.
