Description
For natural-gut like playability, Ashaway Monogut ZX 16G String takes full advantage of the Zyex material in a 100% monofilament construction. The absence of polyester materials increases the elongation properties for increased comfort and power while the monofilament construction offers enhanced durability compared to multifilaments. Unlike both polyester and nylon strings, Monogut Zyex maintains its tension longer for reliable performance throughout the life of the string. Our testers felt that the dynamic properties of the Zyex material gave the string similar power to even some of the best multifilaments while holding its playability longer and exhibiting increased durability. Overall we felt that this is a string suited to all-court players that benefit from a string with some added power, but want reliable performance that is common with solid-core construction. For more information on Monogut ZX 16L, check out the Ashaway website.
Please note: String will look thicker than normal. Once you start stringing your racquet, it will play and feel like a 16L gauge. Ashaway recommends stringing Monogut ZX at 10-15% lower than traditional nylon, but no higher than 60 pounds.
Gauge: 16G (1.27 mm)
Length: 40 ft (12 m)
Composition: 100% Zyex Monofilament
Color: Natural

Very Comfortable String
4/5
If you have elbow problems and are looking for a string that you may be able to play with during your recovery period, this is probably the only man made string that I would recommend. It is extremely comfortable.
Ashaway recommends stringing at 10-15% less than traditional strings. Im not sure what they mean by this but when I strung it at 10-15% less than my normal tension the string had way too much power. I recommend starting at your normal tension and adjusting from there.
However, I think this string is best suited for use in a hybrid setup. Im currently using it in a hybrid on a Wilson ProStaff. I have Zyex in the mains @ 58lbs & Volkl Cyclone Tour 17 in the crosses @ 55 lbs. This combination gives a great combination of control, power, comfort, spin, feel and durability.
