Seems like a paintjob, take a look these links (Pay attention on ridges area which seems to be painted)

The grommet on this Liquidmetal racquet he is using right now looks like the one from the original Ti. Radical or the Intelligence Radical, but it definitely doesn't look like the Liquidmetal grommet cuz it doesn't have the raised bumps on it like the Liquidmetal does. Later

If you think Agassi uses a real LM radical I have some nice land in Florida and a bridge in Brooklyn I'm selling. You interested???
That's what I noticed too.
The different shades of silver are just to obvious.

it might not be. I met a guy in cincinatti who was playing with a "liquid metal perstise" and he let me hold it and he showed me those spotes and they were just a paint job, even though they looked so real.

Actually..if you go look at the Liquidmetal Agassi Jr, on the thing that they put on it, it shows Agassi using a real Liquidmetal racquet.

Kind of ironic, since the Jr. doesn't use real liquidmetal..&lt;_&lt;

If you look at a pic of Agassi real racquet, you'll see that it has a box beam like the PS 6.0 and not a rounded beam like the LM Radical. Maybe he's using an old PS 6.0 Largehead with a LM Radical paintjob?

I tend to think his racquet plays NOTHING like the retail LM Radical. I'd bet his racquet is just all graphite or graphite/kevlar. None of this Liquid Metal nor intellifibre BS.
