    Personally, I like Yonex strings. I wish the CBG100 was easier to get over here.

    Ashaway strings are supposedly, very good. Some of my friends use Ashaway, so I'll ask them what model they use and what tension and what they think next time we play.

    Ashaway Micropower XL (0.73mm) is an excellent string.
    Try stringing it at 28lbs for excellent power and durability.

    Darn..this is getting further and further.LOL..
    Back to the topic,since i can't get ashaway strings here,except for the lower end..rally21,so,i normally only go for yonex strings.I've tried some gosen strings,n they're not as good as yonex.

    I base this on seeing what strings people at my clubs and tournaments use. Even though people don't always use yonex rackets, i find that 99% of the time they use yonex strings. The 1% use Ashaway Rally 21's or something as they are the cheapest strings you get get from a popular store here.

    Of the 99% that use Yonex 80% seem to use BG65's

    I personally like the NGB95 or BG80's
