At what point on the size scale does the 3-string (G) become a wound string? Individual string dimension should be stated in the specs.

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.

Are these 1 set? Last time I bought them they were $3 a set.

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?

Elixir strings any day.

Great tone and playability. Longer lasting than regular strings. Check for optimal pricing. It shouldn’t cost over 1k-1.1k per set. Else, it’s a rip off

Super

Ich finde die Saiten klasse. Sie lassen sich ausgezeichnet spielen und haben einen sehr sehr guten klang. Leider etwas teurer als Ernie ball zb aber trotzdem lohnenswert.
