Arm Friendly Multi to Stock

When I first started stringing I purchased Isospeed Control + Arm Protection which I would describe as a dead but very comfortable multi. Since then I have added NXT, Sensation, Velocity, Prince Premier Control, Natty gut, etc.

I string more of the other multi's and gut but every now and again I have a pal approach me who has a tender elbow and a tender wallet and I string them up with Isospeed Control+ and receive favorable feedback on the string especially given it's $11 price.

My reel is almost out and was wondering what you guys keep on hand for tender elbows and if I should look at some other string or buy another reel of Control+

Thanks

Forten Sweet 16 gauge and Alpha Gut 2000 16 gauge are 2 fairly soft SGs. Not sure if they come in reels, but they are soft. Head FXP is also a good vibration dampening quasi-multi. Worth trying them in packs first if your clients are price sensitive.

I was using Pros Pro Superior gut 16 but it is sold out everywhere. So I found Wilson Sensation Plus 16 which is on sale in red for under $100/reel.

Imo can't go wrong with another reel of control.

If you like head Rip control, you could consider getting reel of head intellitour. Then you have a half-reel of rip control and a half reel of isospeed professional/control classic.

Technifibre NRG2 16G is a great comfortable multi. It is highly rated by TW and it retains tension extremely well. TF Multifeel 16G is another great multi but it is a bit crisper and you asked for arm friendly. I find Multifeel to play extremely well and it also retains tension very well but it isn't as soft as NRG2.

Not sure about US but it exists. Intellitour you can get in the US for sure.

I've wondered if Pro's Pro was going out of business. I've had trouble getting their overgrips this past year too.
