Frazier November 1, 2009 at 1:48 am: I put these strings on and played the quitar for a total of maybe 30 minutes over a weeks time, and after dropping the G string to an F# then back to G standard tuning, the string broke. I usually end up replacing my strings when the 1st string breaks, because i do often drop it down to D with an open D tuning, but that’s after many many times and I kind of expect it. Not the 3rd string! This is the second set of Elixir strings that I’ve tried, and ordered two new sets because I’d had good luck with the first, liked the way they sounded and would say that they lasted at least three times longer than most. Disapointed in this case though.

Andrew Cerny November 1, 2009 at 2:03 am: I have used Elixir Nanowebs for a about 5 years now, and decided I would give these new Phosphor Bronze strings a try. I have a Taylor 814CE 30 year anniversary guitar that normally sounds outstanding. However, after I put these strings on I immediately lost the sparkle that Taylor guitars and elixir strings are known for. That sweet sound was missing. In fact it sounded like the strings I put on were old and dead.

Then to top it off, after a total of 4 hours play on the new strings the D string broke. I was so disappointed in these strings that I had to log on and write my very first review on Amazon.
