    Yep. Why not?
    I have broken a high end racket (Arc10), therefore I have a reason to get a new high end racket. :eek:

    Just got a 3UG2 MX-JJS. Thanks Jasonvan :D. Gonna get it re-strung to my current preferred string BG80P @27lbs. And put a different overgrip (and remove the plastic on the handle). Hoping to get it done this weekend so I can play singles with it on Tuesday night. I'll give a comparision to my current singles racket VT-ZF.

    Initial feel/swing of the racket is that it is deceptively quick yet slightly head heavy.

    Come by Tuesday night C1Browngate 8-9pm if you want to try it out for a game or two. But keep in mind...it's a 3U not 4U like you wanted.

    I'll even keep the BG66UM @ 24lbs on it if that's your preferred string and tension. And I'll also keep the Yonex overgrip (wave grip I think?) on it too. ;)

    I understand that the weight is also at the top, is this noticeable? How does the head heaviness compare to mx80?
    And how does the stiffness compare to the BS LYD?

    yup, the weight also position at top frame, but the overall balance point still similar with mx80 and mx60. The smoothness still there. i hvnt change to try bs lyd, but what i can say is i like the racket shaft how it behave during hitting the shuttle by whipping technique especially during smash. I can felt the shuttle bouncing 2times harder compare to my previous racket.

    I'm actually testing a MX-80: It's extremely stiff and feels hard like two weeks old bread!

    What about MX-JJS? Is the stiffness similar to MX-80 or rather to MX-70?

    So after giving this racket a second chance, I am pretty pleased with the results. What appeared to be dull and powerless was probably dued to the string...Z67 is a way better choice me than the bg 80. My smashes have some power I never got with my 80 and it does feel very good. But even better, my backhand clear is now back to back most of the time, and that for the first time ever! For now its my main racket, but ill have to see if i wanna stay with it or go back to 80, but I must say I am enjoying it very much
