Softest strings you've played with?

Quadium · 11-07-2009, 06:08 PM

I'm looking for some ultra soft arm friendly strings that provide plenty of control and enough power. Any suggestions?

The answer would be VS Babolat Natural Gut right? It's on the softer end of natural guts as compared with Klip, and is by a wide margin softer than any multi. It also has control (ball pocketing, not power absorption) and power (high elasticity) in spades. It lacks only cheap cost and durability, so pick your poison.

Wilson Natural gut- the first and only gut I've tried. VERY VERY comfortable and soft.

It plays identically to Babolat VS because Wilson NG is made by Babolat.

Well, if you want to exclude NG, Bab XCel is a very soft string. I don't think it plays anywhere near that of NG though.
