Elixir Optiweb strings are aimed at musicians who appreciate the attack, precision, and direct feel of a traditional string set but want to benefit from Elixir technology. Thanks to their Optiweb coating, you retain a more "raw" sensation under the fingers while maintaining a lively, clear, and balanced tone. In practice, this is an excellent choice for electric guitar if you are looking for a natural pick response, smooth bends, and a controlled sliding feel, without the impression of an overly "coated" string.
