I have Elixirs on all of the guitars (and bass) I play. This might be the only product that doesn't promise too much in it's commercials. I am the "acid-hand" type guitar collector (auch!), and I never got to enjoy good strings more than for the first songs of a gig. Now I can do it for ten gigs in a row! I replace the plain strings with Martin SP's (bronze plated) every now and then, cause I like their sound more. But the first Elixir wounds stayed for a full 12 months in my strat!

Sound:
If you spent over $1000 dollars on a Martin guitar, these strings will bring the sound of your guitar down somewhat of a notch. I really wanted these strings to sound good, especially after all I read on the internet, but the Martin 4200 Phosphor Bronze that came on my D-16RGT are noticably (not a whole lot) better. I don't have corrosive fingers so these strings aren't a must. I'll try SP+ Extended Life next time. Elixer's sound good though on my low end 12 string.
