Guitar Licks

I’ve used these strings exclusively on my Larrivee L-03. I play with the “Light .012 - .053″, with great results. They honestly last longer then most and the have a great range of sound. They also allow me to slip and bend the strings with great ease. I might add that they keep tune for ages as well.

The I love the sound I get on the bass end especially when I am in “open D” (DADGBE) when slapping the bottom D with my thumb on songs like “Peggy’s Kitchen Wall, BRUCE COCKBURN” and “Neon, John Mayer”. The mid’s are fantastic on “Penny for your Thoughts, Peter Frampton”.

I change my strings every 4-5 months and they still keep up their sound intensity, but after that my pickiness and stubborn ways would come back into the fold. When I was a struggling musician, I would boil, yes boil, my strings and then place a cloth around the end of the string and wind the string in a circular motion to eliminate the dead skin that had developed around the outside exposed part of the strings.

I haven’t used my electric guitars in a while so I unfortunately haven’t gotten around to try the Elixir’s on them.

Has anyone tried these strings on their electrics?
