    I need to string my AT900 P 4U 5G (TH). Seems that recommended tension is 19-24lbs.

    Will string it with BG65. Thinking of string it at 23 or 24lbs. Which one (based on your experience) is better? Or should I go to lower tension?

    Thanks for any reply.

    Well in my opinion i think 24... Just right. 66 with 23 is a bit too low.

    Blurry D: U mean 65?

    Drifit: I would say intermediate. Used to use Carbonex 25 string at 22lbs, couldn't hit hard but felt significant improvement after using the AT900P. Don't smash too often, more all around with weaknesses on backhand clear and smash.

    Thanks for the suggestions

    Blurry D: That's fine. I would like to have other string (its previous string was BG70) but 65 is the only one that's available.

    I bought it at USD170
