I've had them going for a good while now, and have put words in a pattern on a page that [url="http://www.stteachinguk.com/blog/gear-review-elixir-nanoweb-bass-strings"]looks like this.[/url] TL;DR - I find the new breed have better clarity, and feel much more natural on touch then they have before. Still continue to be my strings to go to, so much so that without them I may as well be playing a different bass.

[quote name='ped' timestamp='1433846459' post='2794445] [i]The best feedback will win a year's supply of strings (3 sets)[/i] [/quote] And that sums up exactly why I use Elixir's - hell even 2 sets generally last the year. [b]Have you tried Elixir strings before?[/b] Absolutely - my main bass is currently wearing them. I've used them for years, however financially I find it hard to justify putting a pair on my basses - even though they'd all be played so much more if I did. If they send a 4 string pair, then putting them on the Warwick would give me a good comparison of how the strings have been improved - and if that actually relates in a positive manner. [b]What other brands are you familiar with?[/b] Ernie Balls are my back up brand, and I've used D'Addarios from time to time. [b]What bass(es) will you try the new strings on?[/b] I've currently got a light hybrid set on my '98 Warwick Fortress One, so I'd be more interested to see how they affect my feelings towards the lower end spectrum of my basses - especially that 5 string Cort Curbow. I've never had the chance to test them on a 5 String, mainly because I swear they didn't exist before. [b]What sort of environment will you be playing them in (e.g studio, gigging, practicing) [/b] I'm a college lecturer and a private tutor, so it'll be used in a variety of teacher manners (a couple of my college kids adore the strings, but won't pay the price of the strings new). This will be plugged and unplugged, as not all of my students have multiple amps - Elixirs have always tended to fair better in this environment due to their 'twanginess'. I do a lot of home recording for film/video game composition too, so how the strings would sound there would be a test. [b]Why do you think you'll be a good candidate to test the strings?[/b] I use my bass everyday for my personal pleasure and also for different aspects of teaching - so for me the string choice has to be perfect, as otherwise it could easily affect my professional life, and as I'm using the bass all the time I'm interested in strings the last much longer than the standard, changing strings is a time consuming element that I don't always have time for. Secondly, I've written for blog sites/websites before, as my writing/review style is engaging but not condescending - after all I'm writing a review to tell people how great/not so the product is, not an essay on how my dog is better than your dog (no essay needed - MY DOG WINS THE END) [b]Links to any blogs/reviews you may have already posted (not essential but interesting)[/b] [url="http://ohnobeta.weebly.com/all"]OHNOBETA[/url] - a website I set up to discuss technology/gaming that also incorporated reviews. I no longer have time to do it sadly, it just floats on the internet's surface. [url="http://www.stteachinguk.com"]STTeachingUK[/url] - not sure of the relevance, but this is my teaching website that relates back to my Facebook page which all my students have access to. I could easily post the review on the website to spread love and harmony for [s]Spiderman[/s] nano web strings.
