Do Elixer strings last forever?

if you dont like a smooth slippery feel to your strings though, you probably wont like them

It is indeed an icky feeling playing Elixirs... Like someone had placed greasy glue on the strings :-). --Kent

They came factory strung on my Ibanez, and I haven't changed them yet, that was almost a year and a half ago.

my only gripe is how greasy they feel at first, but after a few weeks of playing, they start to leave less residue on your fingers.
