Description
Improving the basic synthetic gut, the new Wilson SGX 16 Black offers a crisp, comfortable feel by advancing the standard synthetic gut construction. The addition of bi-directional X-bands offers enhanced elasticity while allowing the string to retain the crisp feel characteristic of solid core synthetics. The additional bands in SGX 16 provide different flex characteristics, increasing the power and comfort. The large solid core is wrapped in the X-bands and then a layer of outerwraps is applied, resulting in a string with additional power and comfort compared to their basic synthetic gut. Recommended for players seeking an all-around string with additional power and a slightly softer feel without losing the crisp control.
Construction: Polyamide monofilament + X-Bands + Outerwrap
Color: Black
Gauge: 1.30mm (16g)
Length: 40 ft (12.2 m)

Wilson SGX 16
4/5
This is an excellent synthetic gut string that has a little more power and control than traditional synthetic gut strings. Also has more durability than the other softer strings that are out there. Good choice for a hybrid stringing pattern as well if you prefer a string with softer feel in combo with a more rigid poly string.

SGX Black 16G Tennis String
5/5
I got the SGX Black 16G Tennis String onto my Babolat Z-drive light, and it works pretty good. I am entirely satisfied with this combination, and the string would be a perfect choice for medium level players like me. Try this for your racket!

This synthetic gut string is basic as basic gets. No big negatives but by the same token there is nothing exceptional either. If you are looking for a basic all around string that is inexpensive, you’ve found your string.

This is a great feeling string, that was also free with the purchase of my racquet. SGX Black feels good when I hit the ball and gives me control for my top-spin shots.

Strings shred very easily after only a few hours of play. Lose their pop and strength soon after. Spend a few more dollars for higher quality strings. I tested this product twice.

Great string. The feeling is quite good, fantastic spin and it does not lose tension till the end. The only bad thing I will say about it is that it doesnt last long. I will not recommend this string if you are a frequent string breaker and looking to save some money on your strings.

I am rather inexperienced, but I believe this string is responsive and it also appears to hold up well. When I have to replace it on this racquet I will have something else to compare to, but until now it seems to be doing its job well.
