## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can I use these strings for an electro acoustic guitar**
A: I haven't heard of anyone using Electric Strings on Electro-Acoustic guitar - regular Acoustic stringing is what I hear and know of and they work well. My knowledge is  however, that there are manufacturers who do make custom strings for E-A guitars, I just don't know of anyone using them.

**Q: being using polywebs for years, and they last forever!, are these as good as promised? are the plain strings treated as well?**
A: HI mateI haven't used polywebs,  they ' re supposed to be warmer sounded than these. I use elixir mostly on my practice /rehearsal guitar where tone is not the first priority and they do seem to last. Don't know if I'd use them for recording,  at least for clean tones after a whileHope I helped!

**Q: what are the individual gauge of each string 011 - - - - 54  ?**
A: there is no 11-54 gauge elixir set.

11-49 = 11 14 18 28 38 49

Ernie ball make a Beefy Slinky set which is 11-54 
11 15 22p 30 42 54

**Q: Are the 10-56 really 56 at thickest one? Because picture says 10-46**
A: I use Elixir 9/42 and 10/46 electric guitar strings for their bright, long-lasting tone, on my 6 string guitars.. The 10/56 guitar strings are only suitable for 7-string guitars.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Quality Strings
*by A***W on 20 November 2025*

Great Quality Strings. Really gave my sons Les Paul copy a new lease of life. Feels lots better to play.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Last ages
*by S***T on 9 November 2024*

Not everyone likes them but they are my go-to strings (9-42 or 9-46 depending on the guitar). Having a bit of a guitar collection, it's great that they don't go rusty from lack of use or constant cleaning. Personally, I like the sound and feel. They are a bit more expensive but not in the long run.
