I probably play more than that and have noticed significantly longer life, particularly on the plain strings. On other brands, the plain strings tend to discolor and turn black after a few hours of play, and the elixers have yet to do that. The set that have been on my acoustic for a while have only just started showing even the beginning signs of wear. Thats roughly 3 times longer life than usual.
