Juicy Mullet

Ok that'll draw viewers.

Does anyone perhaps have an idea of a set of strings (of any type) that are most equivalent to:

Elixer Nanoweb Medium
.045 .065 .085 .105 .125




Any help will be appreciated and uncompensated!

After waiting many years, hoping the subject "Juicy Mullet" would come up in the "Strings" section, do I even have to say I'm disappointed?

Okay. That was interesting.

As to the strings, the last I heard was that D'addario makes the strings that Gore Technologies uses to make their Elixer strings. So, now that D'addario has their own line of coated strings, they are essentially the same although the coating technology and method that they use are are slightly different.
I am not really into coated strings, but I had tried both and really couldn't tell that much difference, except the D'Addarios were priced slighty less.

Goody! The 4-string set plus B string is costing $50 +

Thank you, I'll check out their line!
