What makes the Nittaku Acoustic blades special?

The Nittaku Acoustic blades stand for a playing feel that is not often found. Their special character is created by high-quality veneers, precise Japanese processing and the use of wood that is also used in instrument making. Added to this is the particularly soft gluing. And this is precisely what gives these rackets their special ball feel.

In play, this means that ball contact feels very clear, fine and controlled. The blade is not hard, but lively, vibrating and extremely sensitive. Players who are looking for more feel for the ball when playing topspin, short game or backhand often notice the difference very quickly.

The Acoustic series is aimed at players who don't just want a fast blade, but a blade with a lot of feel that really supports their game. Not fast and hard, but calm, precise and sensitive.

What does G-Revision mean?

The term G-Revision stands for the newly revised grip shape. The grip has been made slightly thicker and rounder and is therefore particularly comfortable to hold. Many European players find this shape more suitable because it fills the hand a little more fully and therefore appears even more secure and stable.

For whom are Acoustic blades interesting?

Acoustic blades are primarily of interest to TT players who want to consciously develop their game. In other words, not for players who are simply looking for "as fast as possible", but for anyone who wants to bring more quality to their game.

Many people are familiar with typical situations:

  • The first topspin is actually well intended, but too often ends up in the net or out the back.

  • The backhand feels unstable, especially under pressure.

  • In the short game, the ball bounces away too uncontrollably.

  • You lack composure and confidence during fast rallies.

  • You don't feel the ball accurately enough and make unnecessary mistakes.

Depending on your playing style and problem, a different blade from the Acoustic series may make sense. That's why it's worth comparing them carefully.

Nittaku Acoustic G-Revision - if you are looking for more feel and control in your offensive game

The Nittaku Acoustic G-Revision is the right choice for offensive players looking for a high-quality solid blade with plenty of feel, control and clean feedback. It plays balanced, pleasantly precise and lively without becoming restless.

You can feel a clear, rich feedback at impact. This is particularly helpful for players who need more confidence when playing topspin or are looking for more security on the backhand. The blade also plays very controlled and comfortable on serves and returns.

If you often have the feeling that your current blade is either too direct or too unclear, the Nittaku Acoustic G-Revision is the right solution.

Nittaku Acoustic Carbon G-Revision - when a solid blade has become too good for you

The Nittaku Acoustic Carbon G-Revision is aimed at offensive players who like the typical Acoustic feel, but are looking for more speed, more stability and more punch in direct comparison.

It plays more directly, clearly and dynamically than the Acoustic G-Revision. The ball gets more speed without the blade feeling uncontrolled. Especially in fast topspin duels, in counter-topspin and in powerful offensive play, it still remains calm and precise.

This blade is ideal for players who actively play forward and sometimes think to themselves: "All well and good - but now the ball should have a little more oomph."

Nittaku Acoustic Carbon Inner G-Revision - if you want a carbon blade but don't want to compromise on feel

The Nittaku Acoustic Carbon Inner G-Revision is the particularly interesting middle ground for many players. It combines the advantages of a carbon blade with a noticeably softer, more controlled feel.

Compared to classic outer carbon, this blade is less hard and less abrupt. Ball contact feels longer and more controlled, while at the same time there are noticeably more reserves available for active strokes. This makes it particularly exciting for players who play topspin with feeling and quality but need more stability overall.

If you have often thought that carbon would be exciting for you, but find many carbon blades too direct, too hard or too "dead", then the Acoustic Carbon Inner G-Revision is a good alternative. Here you get the power from the carbon, but at the same time retain the pleasant Acoustic feel.

Nittaku Violin - for offensive players who love ball feel

The Nittaku Violin is designed for offensive players who value spin and are looking for a very flexible blade.

The Violin plays slightly differently to the Acoustic. The ball seems to stay on the racket a little longer. This is exactly the feeling that players who like to open with a lot of spin and want to steer the ball deliberately like.

If you are looking for a blade that not only reacts cleanly but is also really fun to play topspin with, you should definitely take a look at the Nittaku Violin.

Typical problems that the Violin can help with

Problem: You lack feeling on the first topspin.
Suitable blade: Nittaku Violin
The more flexible feel helps you to get more rotation and more confidence in the first ball.

Nittaku Violin Carbon - if you want to combine the violin feel with more speed

The Nittaku Violin Carbon builds on the special character of the Violin, but plays more directly, more stable and more powerful. Here you get ball feel + more speed.

This is a very interesting solution for offensive players who like to actively pull, counter-pull and want more speed in the open game. The blade still remains flexible, but is more powerful than the classic violin.

So if you like the feeling that the ball sits nicely in the racket, but at the same time want a little more top speed and stability, the Violin Carbon is ideal for you.

Nittaku Violoncello - for defensive players who demand feeling and control

The Nittaku Violoncello is the right blade for defensive players looking for high control, a soft feel and strong ball control. It plays quieter, slower and more controlled than the offensive blades in the Acoustic series.

The Violoncello shows its strength particularly in undercut play, blocking, placement and controlled build-up play. Ball contact feels soft and secure. This creates confidence in situations where you not only want to return the ball, but also consciously vary it.

What is particularly interesting for modern defensive players is that the wood not only controls the ball, but also has enough quality for active counter-attacks.

It is not for nothing that the Violoncello is Nittaku's most popular defensive blade.

Typical problems that the Violoncello can help with

Problem: You play defense, but also want to be able to attack in a controlled manner.
Suitable blade: Nittaku Violoncello
It offers a lot of control without slowing you down in your active playing.
