    what is the max string tension can the at900p can withstand? i'm think of stringing it with nbg98 at 26lbs. Do you think this is okay?

    Should be fine. I'm using NGB98 at 26lbs on my AT900s.

    yeah armortecs i heard can take pretty high tensions.
    the recommended are around 24 or 25lbs anways so i think 26 should be fine

    If it is a 4U then 27-28lbs is the max. 3U can go to 31-32lbs maybe more if a good stringer.

    26 should be fine but like others have mentioned, it depends on the stringer. The AT900P seems to have soft material around the lower quarters. I've seen 24lbs jobs that have started collapsing the carbon fibre. I'll see if I can go take some close-up photos the next time I see these.
