Random movie quote to make you seem hip and "with it": The food court is downstairs. The cookie stand is upstairs. It's not like we're talking quantum physics here.

Elixers- They're overpriced and the fuckers take forever to break in. Only good thing about them is the squeak free slides. I've said this all before.

Everything and anything has already been said before oh this topic (by me especially) its all just opinion and people need to stop making fucking threads about it.

I've played the D'Adarrios before. At first they sounded great, but after a week they went dead. It was nuts how poorly they held up. Trust me, I don't play long or hard enough to kill strings in a week.

Elixers last me a while though. But people are right, they do make every guitar sound the same, and I'm a little less impressed with the meds than I was with the lights, but they still are great for easy slides!
