Prince Synthetic Gut Multifilament 17

Just installed this string in one of my Magnetic Tours. Was pretty easy to string up, not as easy as some multis though. I haven’t broken these yet, but played 2 doubles matches with them. Initial impressions are “nothing special”. This isn’t especially soft and doesn’t have especially good feel. Durability will be interesting. All in all it’s a pretty middle of the road string. It’s definitely softer than PSGD 17, but it doesn’t have much more feel, which you’d normally see in a multifilament. The $6.50 price point is nice, but I can’t see really spending twice the price of PSGD for this. Tension I think has started to dip already after 2 matches. I’ll see if it has any redeeming qualities now that it’s fully broken in. Some strings just get better w/ use…others not so much. If I don’t post on this again, my initial impressions were correct: Performance, B, Price A-… Worth a try, probably not one for the inventory.

Setup: Fischer Magnetic Tour, 57 lbs.
