I have 1 FX 500 so far modded to 333g and 32.5cm balance, leather grip and strung with confidential 1.25 @52lbs. Very sweet tweener with a good feel, easy playability and control is decent.

I was about to lay my hands on the Tour version but backed after seeing Tennisnerd's review on it. I know he was unlucky with the QC but it still made hesitate whether I should give the regular a chance instead.

Can you compare to some other tweeners in more depth, Pure Drive/Pure Aero perhaps? :)
Much better then the new PA in my opinion which i demoed and only played in stock form. The FX 500 is not as super open as the PA so had a more moderate launch angle which i prefer. The dampening that dunlop uses is apparently better in the sense that the feel is more connected and touch shots work better. It is also much more controlled than the PA. It probably is closer to the Ezone 100 except it has a nice connected feel.

What are your thoughts on picking up an FX500LS with the intention of customizing it to my liking?
