I got a shitty ass Fender DG-11E and use Elixir nanowebs usually, but they are really starting to sound like shit once the coating wears off.

alvarez RD20S - elixirs

1973 hofner 12er - elixirs, but theyre too expensive. if i restring again, maybe GHS?

Godin - in trial stage of ernie ball power slinkies. i like the elixirs better because of them having less squeak..
