Artists[edit]

As usual, with lists of this nature, it is not really helpful to list every single guitar player who may have used Elixir Strings at one point on one of his many guitars. Let's stick to official endorsers, and artists notable enough to have their own article, shall we?
I took the liberty to delete "Kermheat" and "Wayne Sermon" per that proposal.

Guitar stores[edit]

An employee of Thomann once told me (around ca 2017/2018), that they put Elixir strings on all guitars and basses in their showrooms, simply for the cost of not having to change them so often. Maybe something to that effect could be mentioned in the article. --BjKa (talk) 10:17, 10 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Criticism[edit]

How about a sentence like "While a large number of guitarists and bassists like Elixir strings for their longevity, many are not satisfied with the feel of the polymer coating under their fingers, and prefer traditional uncoated strings." This could easily be backed up by some links to guitar and bass forums... --BjKa (talk) 10:17, 10 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
