i use elixers on all my guitars. they last longer...if you do not break them (i.e. they don't dull as fast as other strings...supposedly). I don't really have a problem with breakage, don't see any reason why they would break easier than other strings. As long as you take the time to stretch them out properly and everything you should be allright. They sound spectacular, though. I used to use D'Addarios(sp?) until a friend conviced me to shell out the extra cash...used elixer ever since.
