Overview
Introducing Signum Pro Yellow Jacket! As a co-polyester monofilament, this string is designed to give intermediate and advanced players the needed control to attack the ball. In addition to its low powered and ultra-predictable response, this string has a hexagonal shape for maximum bite. The result is massive spin potential.
Try this 1.22mm gauge for slightly more spin and feel but less durability than the 1.30mm version.
- Gauge: 17/1.22mm
- Length: 660ft/200m
- Composition: Co-polyester Monofilament
- Color: Yellow
Customer Reviews
Poor packagingGreat string, poor packing. Lack of a bag on the reel or padding in the oversized box and jostling due to delayed shipment resulted in several yards of string becoming loose along with the starting anchor. No damage to plastic reel case or string.
Comfortable Co-Poly with lots of spin.The Signum Pro Yellow Jacket 17L (1.22mm) is a fantastic string. I can hit all the shots I need on the tennis court, forehands, one-handed backhands, slice shots, serves, etc. & it holds tension very well. The spin you get with the Yellow Jacket string keeps the ball in play much easier than round co-poly. I’m in my late 40’s suffer from arthritis in both of my elbows and this string works great as a hybrid and I don’t have any arm pain. I play the Pro Kennex Ki Q+ Tour Pro 315 (98 square inch) with the Volkl Pro Fiber Multifilament 15L (1.35mm) in the mains at 52 pounds, and the Signum Pro Yellow Jacket 17L (1.22) in the crosses. This combination has truly been a blessing in my tennis game. I can spend over an hour of hitting balls on the tennis wall at the local park with no pain. This is a fantastic formula that works for me and I hope Signum Pro continues to make the Yellow Jacket line of string.

Secret gemA friend introduced me to this string, and I am glad he did. Perfect feel, more than the Solinco Hyper-G, which I have used for years. Not sure how well known this string is, but if it is not, I suspect that will change soon. If you are an intermediate to advanced player, don't worry about the string being too thin, it's very controllable. Highly recommend this string.
Solid StringIf you like to hit hard with good directional control, this string delivers. I play it at 50 lbs on the mains and 46 crosses on a Wilson Pro Open 100. It also holds tension well and the strings edges impart more spin. It should play well at lower tensions for more power. - Rod
