Head Prestige 600 String Pattern

I have an unstrung Head Prestige 600 (silver/lime). The handle indicates the suggested tension at 53lb and string pattern 16x19. I thought the string pattern is 18 x 20. It has the same number of holes (76) as my PC600, which is 18 x 20.

Is it mislabeled?

It is mislabeled. I have at least one silver/grey with green grommets Prestige 600 that is mislabeled. The correct string pattern and tension is identical to the Prestige Classic 600.

someone had one two many biers on their break back in 1992.

You can try obtaining a TGK237.2?:) I'm going to get a Calibre 600 soon just to see how a midsize 16x19 Head plays like... although it has a wider beam than the Prestige 600.

MarrratSafin,
Just curious - is the Prestige 600 your favorite from the Prestige line? How's your recent experience playing with this racquet?
Thanks.

It's my 2nd favourite, but it's a better frame with a bit of lead at 3/9, or replace the non-CAP green grommets with CAPs. More solid and stable that way. I thought the Prestige Pro 600 (brown fading to red) is by far the best, it's really amazing when strung with a top multi or gut. Nothing beats the incredible feel. Before I only have 1 PP600 and it's new, so I had a hard time holding myself back and just play with the Prestige 600 which I have a few of.:lol: but since then I've acquired one more PP600, and use it most of the time now. And looking for more!

I guess soon you might be parting with some of your Prestige 600 in exchange for more PP600. :)

No, will probably keep all actually.:twisted: the beautiful lime green/silver cosmetics has to be one of my all time favourites, it will take something quite special for them to leave my closet...:lol:

It seems that you have a healthy collection of Head Classics. Sometimes it's hard to part with any of the raquets. I am still feeling the pain of letting one of my near mint PC600 go recently. :cry: :cry:

I figure I'll only let some go if I manage to obtain more in near new condition...:lol: yes I saw your post in the for sale section, quite a few there, why did you sell?
