I don't hate 'em, but I don't use them very often. I know they last longer, but for some reason I break those. Plus, they're just not as bright or have the same timbre to me as regular wound strings. Just my take.

I do use Elixirs on one of my guitars, just not the one I play all the time!

Becoming a great guitarist has less to do with fancy moves than it does becoming a master of the basics and learning musicianship.
It's not what you can't do. It's how you play what you already know.
