So it came time to restring my F130 for the first time since I bought it used. When I purchased I went with my go to Elixir pb nanos. I will admit I loved its sound, thought I’d try something new though. Haven’t used a set of silk/steels in probably 7-8 years and having a smaller than dred size guitar wanted to give it a go. Initial impression is the typical....more mellow, smoother sound. They definitely are “stickier” feeling than the nanos. I like how they sound for passages that I pick with my fingers as they seem to be more balanced across the spectrum than I’m used to, haven’t had the chance to try them out with a pick yet. I’m interested to see their longevity as I don’t play out or as often as I would like (darn toddlers), and that’s one thing I love with the Elixirs as I can get away with two sets a year per guitar. Anyway, just was curious of others thoughts I’ll update as I break them in!
