Huge shout-out to Gao Stringing Lab for the incredible service. I’ve lost count of how many stringers I’ve tried from FB Marketplace, only to end up disappointed by "smiley faces", inconsistent knots, crossovers at the bumper, or a feel that’s just "off."
I decided to give Gao a try a couple of weeks ago and I’m so glad I did. The turnaround was super quick—done in just 25 minutes. The strings were perfectly straight and the knots were tidy.
I brought in another racquet today for stringing and spec measurement and the work was just as perfect and quick as the first time. I especially love the stringing record stickers he adds with the date and tension; I’ve never seen that level of attention to detail anywhere else!
