I remember in the 90s and 2000s, the majority of players used to have their string provider's stencilled onto the bottom of the racquet, underneath the stencil logo of their racquet e.g. Sampras used a Wilson racquet so had a 'W' stencilled on his racquet and below was the Babolat stencil lines...
EDIT:
The strings that I used were gamma IO string 15L, strung at 58 lbs.
I am playing with the RF97 autograph and tried the thickest polyester string
'It feels so dead and hitting a rock, not a tennis ball. When I try my usual topspin forehand, even with so much effort, the ball keeps falling...
Old topic, new thread! What are some good poly to try for this string pattern in your opinion? I'm trying to look around for ideas to string my Head MG Radical MP. My priorities, in order from high to low, are: power, spin potential, overall cost (price + how long each sj last), control (since...
Just watched a video announcing Hyper G Soft and a yet to be named sky blue textured poly. Anyone have any intel on this or know the release date of the former?

Babolat areo pure 2019, Luxilon 125 ALU Power Soft 16L, Tension 48. Strings pop every 2 to three hours. Anyone else having issues with the new aero pure or with Luxilon 125 Power Soft strings. Thinking of moving to Solinco 16G but keeping the tension. Thoughts?
Is this the best control/spin multi on the market? Who tried it?
Is it better than:
RIP
Velocity
HDX
Multifeel
Isospeed Control
Yonex Tour Super 850 Pro

Hey guys, I have the 2013 Aero Pro Drive and I used it only with RPM Blast 1.30mm for 5 years. I want now to try Solinco Hyper G 1.30mm (16G). Does anyone tried both strings? What is the biggest difference between these?
Which tension should I try? I used always tension 25kg (55 lbs) on RPM...
For a while, I have played with several poly strings replacing them more frequently than necessary. Briefly describing my journey with one-line comments:
Luxilon
ALU power 1.25: Probably best string either for professional or someone rich.
ALU Power 1.25 Rough: Similar impression with ALU, but...
I've been demo-ing some strings looking for a good setup for a Burn FST 95 and when I finally think I found something I really enjoy on the Solinco Hyper-G, the 2 string sets I bought broke at the same spot after less than 1h of hitting.
I've never broke strings like that. The string definitely...
I strung at 53lbs with a Head Graphene Touch Speed Pro. Love the feel but I expect more spin and control. I normally hit flat both forehand and backhand, and spin when the ball comes low. The balls had great speed but often fly off the baseline. Spinning the ball when serving was also hard...
I have been playing with Barb Wire 16 for a while now. A lot of posters say it feels dead, but I seem to get a lively response in my Pure Strike 19/19 (red & black). Anyone else?
