Wilson Synthetic Gut Power 16G Tennis String Reel , Lime

The Wilson Synthetic Gut Power 16G in Lime (660 ft / 200 m Reel) is the high-visibility, high-energy version of Wilson's most versatile synthetic gut. It combines a "crisp" hitting sensation with a bold, fluorescent aesthetic, making it a favorite for players who want their equipment to stand out as much as their game.

This string is engineered with a solid monofilament nylon core and high-elasticity outer wraps. The "Power" designation comes from the specialized core material that is designed to snap back faster than traditional nylon, providing an extra boost in ball speed. The 16-gauge (1.30 mm) diameter is the industry standard for durability in this category, offering a stable and reliable performance over many hours of play.

Performance Profile

1. Power (8/10): Designed specifically to provide "free power." The lively core helps players generate depth on groundstrokes and extra "zip" on serves.
2. Feel (8/10): Offers a very "clean" and "crisp" response. It provides more direct feedback to the hand than dampened multifilaments, which is essential for precision and placement.
3. Comfort (7/10): Far more forgiving and arm-friendly than polyester strings. It is a reliable choice for players who want a responsive string bed without the risk of joint pain.
4. Durability (6/10): As a solid-core 16G string, it is quite resilient. It holds its playability and tension longer than many entry-level synthetic guts.

Best Suited For

1. Players Seeking Visibility: The Lime color is exceptionally bright, making it easy to track the ball's impact and giving the racquet a modern, aggressive look.
2. Recreational & League Competitors: An excellent "all-around" string that performs consistently across all areas of the court.
3. Hybrid Setups: Works perfectly as a "cross" string to add a pop of color and a softer feel to a stiff polyester "main" string.
4. Junior Players: The vibrant color and easy power make it a popular choice for younger players who are transitioning into full-sized racquets.

The Reel Advantage

Investing in the 660 ft Lime Reel is the most economical way to keep your racquet looking and playing "fresh." For home stringers or those who break strings regularly, the reel format significantly lowers the cost per restring while ensuring you always have a high-performance, high-visibility string ready to go.
