GREAT JOB!!! This is the THIRD video I've watched comparing the two strings and it is the FIRST that actually took the time to PLAY the strings instead of just talking about them. You did a great job, taking the time to compare in different settings in addition to explaining everything. Listing your exact equipment is also such a nice thing. Many, many thanks.

Happy to know that I picked up some of the Nanoweb Elixir strings! Time to go put them on my guitar tomorrow! I like the smooth but bright tone in guitar tones, so I am much more happy to know I chose what is good for my preferences.

Wow, I didn't expect to hear that much of a difference but I strongly prefer the polyweb. Good to know!

I just watched your video on a 400$ vs a 1600$. I heard more difference between the strings in this vid that between the 2 guitars. Incredible !

I liked the nanoweb because the sound is clearer. I’ve been playing the poly in 10’s on my fender Mexican standard Stratocaster. It’s a 2012. I am missing tones I wanted to hear and didn’t know why and I thought it was my pick ups. Gladly I bought the nano but in 11’s I might have more bite than I thought which could be great

Hey thank you Bernth... I thought it was a great comparison..especially using the 2 different clean signals.. DI and Clean as well as effects. The bright (nano) vs warm (poly) was definitely noticeable. The trouble is with electric guitar players...there are times when you want bright and others when you want warm..which is why there are so many variables to achieve that with, the tone knob, the pickup position (neck will be warmer/bridge brighter) etc. But I think you demo'd the strings well and for me... I will likely go with Polyweb strings...I like the nice warm tones...it can always be made brighter with the tone knob on the guitar, or on the amp. Thanks Bernth...keep on shreddin!!

Nano for me. Thanks, good demo straight to the point. You should do another with same comparisson technique of nano, poly and opti with palmmute+tapping+clean.

Good vid. I prefer polyweb. I was waiting for "vs" with high gain drive at the end! Greetings!

Does Polyweb have more tension?

Thanks! Helpful video as I decide which one to get this time!

Thanks a lot sir! but hope you compared the optiweb too Sir BERNT coz I used and choose that string for more crispy or crunchy sounds

I prefer polywebs. They seem to last longer

Crazy how much you can hear that attack on the nanoweb. Isolated like this, I can't tell if its a good or bad thing. It's the only "premium" string I've ever owned and I really love the feel, but I think I'll try the optiweb next to see for myself.

great video, just what I wanted to know.

Everything depends witch guitar you have , you got to balance the sound, gibson or guitars made of mahogany and rosewood neck is naturaly warm so polyweb will be even warmer, strats of Maple neck and alder body is the opposite

Cool. Den Unterschied hatte ich gesucht.

How does the feel of Polyweb compare to a flatwound? I've been experimenting with Ernie Ball Cobalt Flats (with unwound 3rd), and like the feel and the tone. Wonder whether Polyweb might be an alternative?

From this comparison I prefer nanoweb. There is some harshness to the polyweb. I also think the nanoweb sounds "warmer"

Let me ask...for acoustic guitar wich the better string to play fingerstyle ?

Which strings are best for you?, For play metal and shred

Great video ! Which strings feel more comfortable to you , especially for bends? thanks

My local guitar store never has the same brand of strings I put on, one day it'll be super slinky heavy bottoms, the next I'll have to do with nyxl 9's, then another brand and so on and so forth. Current set are addario nyxl 10's. Also haven't quite found my perfect gauge because of the factor mentioned. At least I can do my own setup on my soft tail.

Can you clean elixer strings with regular stringcleaner

I wanna know just which one is more light for vibratos and bends .... becaus nanoweb is heavy... even using 0.9....

thanks for the verry very great review video

Elixir are the best strings, by far

Hi bro, what recommended for bending technic? Nanoweb or Polyweb?

Just installed a set of elixir nanowebs and was thoroughly disappointed. The thought of having a set of long lasting strings for a guitar with an FR sounded like a great idea and the reviews had me ramped. However they sound very muddy and distorted. Notes with extended chords have little definition or clarity and make my high-end guitar sound like something I got at a pawn shop. The used and abused set of Ernie Ball's I replaced sounded much better. Of course style of music makes a big difference. If you're looking for a bright punchy tone, growling rhythms and searing leads look elsewhere.

I'm just counting your fingers...and yes...12🤣 My question: I once watched PJ Harvey on BBC TV and her guitarist used a Bowie knife sliding its face up & down the fret. It gave out a weird sound. Have you tried doing this?

I like Nanoweb strings.

What string is the best for Ep tribute plus? that stock string is hurting my fingers .

Your endorsement voice is different from your guitar lesson voice i see 😁

I notice the difference!! I can clearly hear the sound of marketing!! 😂😂

Recomended for yamaha apx600?? Please respon

Polyweb far superior

Moin und hallo Bernth, ich erlaube mir mal auf Deutsch zu fragen , da mein Englisch nicht der Knaller ist . Welche Saitenstärke empfiehlst Du bei Drop Tunings? Von Exilier wird meine bis jetzt benutzte 11-56 , scheinbar nicht angeboten ( d adarrio EXL 117) Vielen Dank für Deine tollen Videos!!

Nano-webis my choice for your guitar setup. Polyweb on your guitar setup is a waste of money

Polyweb is long lasting than nanoweb the ddnt last long tone

Does it coated all 6 strings or just the bottom 3 ? 🤔

I have no clue what the fuck bright and warm sounds like

About to try me some optiweb strings just wish they made more gauges . I have a les paul with emg pups and like drop c and d standard tuning and havnt found the gauges I like for that tuning from elixir . Might just get some 7 string sets and throw out the 4th maybe. 11/56 or 11/59 if they got em.
