Overview

The Elixir Nanoweb Phosphor Bronze Custom Light set is great if you’re looking for a combination of playability and warmth.

The cool thing about this set is that it delivers the playability of a thinner gauge of string, but because of the impact the coating has on the strings’ tone it’s still a really warm sounding set.

The Nanoweb coating used on these strings also helps to retain some brightness, unlike the Polyweb coating which leans more towards the warm side of the spectrum.

There isn’t really a genre these strings can’t do, though if you’re looking for a bluegrass tone you’re likely going to be happier with an 80/20 set.

With that being said, if you’re doing jazz, fingerstyle, or more mellow genres you’re likely going to get pretty good results with this set of strings.
