Individual string dimension should be stated in the specs.** A: Usually a wound 3rd is clearly stated on strings packaging, as that is a salient feature. You will find this often in electric sets 12-52, usually labelled "Heavy" or "Jazz." In most cases the wound G string starts at .021 or .022, but I've seen sets that wind the g at .018-.019. I know this is more general info and not related to Elixir, but I'm guessing it applies to their strings, too. **Q: Are these 1 set? Last time I bought them they were $3 a set.** A: Yes. This is for one set. I'm pretty sure these strings were never available for $3/set. Maybe it was a different brand of strings? ## Frequently Bought Together - Elixir Strings, Electric Guitar Strings, Nickel Plated Steel with OPTIWEB Coating, Longest-Lasting Crisp Tone with Comfortable Feel, 6 String Set, Light/Heavy 10-52 - Elixir Strings 19052 Coated Nickel Electric Guitar Strings, Light (.010-.046) - Elixir Strings, Electric Guitar Strings, Nickel Plated Steel with POLYWEB Coating, Longest-Lasting Warm Tone with Comfortable Feel, 6 String Set, Light 10-46 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.nz/products/41139530-strings-electric-guitar-strings-nickel-plated-steel-with-optiweb-technology](https://www.desertcart.nz/products/41139530-strings-electric-guitar-strings-nickel-plated-steel-with-optiweb-technology) --- *Product available on Desertcart New Zealand* *Store origin: NZ* *Last updated: 2026-08-30*
