Luxilon 4G

While Luxilon 4G offers better comfort than traditional first-generation polyester strings, it is still a firm, monofilament string. If you have a history of arm issues, you might consider using it in a hybrid setup with a softer multifilament string to reduce impact shock.

Luxilon 4G is specifically engineered for superior tension maintenance. Unlike many standard polyesters that lose tension quickly, this string retains its playing characteristics for a significantly longer period, keeping your racquet feeling consistent match after match.

This string is designed for intermediate to advanced players with long, fast swing speeds who prioritize control and durability. If you are an aggressive baseliner who hits with heavy pace and spin, the firm response of 4G will help you keep the ball in the court.

The 1.25mm (16L) gauge offers a balance between durability and playability. Thinner gauges generally provide more spin and feel, while thicker gauges offer increased durability; this specific gauge is widely considered the sweet spot for most competitive players.

Because it is a firm co-polyester, it is generally recommended to string Luxilon 4G at a slightly lower tension than you would use for a synthetic gut or multifilament. This helps unlock the string's intended performance and comfort levels.
