Jeff and Alois,

What's your opinion on the cheap Friendship 729FX rubbers out of China?  I'm not sure what they go for now, but they were selling for $5 a sheet in the USA last year and I've been very happy with them.  What is it that the classic rubbers (like the Yakasa Mark V and the Butterfly Sriver) offer that the Chinese rubbers don't?

Thanks,

Tom

Hi Tom,

The only difference is the feel.  The Chinese rubbers tend to be harder with a tackier surface.  If you like the feel of them then you have a good cheap option.

They are a good quality rubber.

Tone is in Your Fingers

There's is an old saying about guitar playing - tone is in your fingers. And If you've ever seen a really good guitarist play an old guitar then you'll understand how true that saying is. I know we go on a lot about this topic but it is so true. Once you've got yourself a decent bat, it's no longer up to the equipment, it's up to YOU!
