Gamma AMP Moto 16/1.29 String
Line: AMP Moto
$10.99
Gamma Moto 16 is a firm co-poly offering more than just control and durability. With its 7 sharp edges this one bites hard. The result is massive spin potential . We found this string to have surprisingly good pocketing for a firm monofilament, with very impressive responsiveness and decent comfort at lower tensions.

What players say
Tennis Warehouse's playtest team scored this seven-sided co-poly high for control, spin, and durability, but low for power and only middling for comfort, calling it a firm, control-first string suited to advanced players. Customer reviews on the product page are split: several long-time users praise its spin, pocketing, and tension maintenance, while a 2024 reviewer reported developing tennis elbow after restringing it repeatedly at lower tension.
Best for
- Advanced players with full, fast swings seeking control and spin
- Players willing to trade power for a firm, control-oriented poly
- Players pairing it with a softer cross or multifilament for comfort
Pros
- Strong control and spin from the seven-sided profile; both scored 85/100 in Tennis Warehouse's playtest
- Long playability duration and durability in playtest (88/100 and 87/100)
- Several customer reviewers praise its spin, ball pocketing, and tension maintenance
Cons
- Low power (50/100 in playtest) and a very firm, stiff feel
- Comfort scored only 58/100 in playtest; a 2024 customer reviewer reported developing tennis elbow after several restrings at lower tension
- Playtesters and the product page both flag it as too firm and underpowered for beginners

I found this string to be fairly low-powered with lots of control.

I would recommend Moto to more advanced players with full, fast swings looking for additional control and spin.

The seven-sided nature of Moto gave it some great bite.

Overall, the response felt very reliable, which made it easier to attack the ball.

I had this string freshly strung half a dozen times in my Ezone and finally developed tennis elbow!
