That thing had like ten different paintjobs, and they were all ****ing excellent.
Favorite ever racquet paint jobs??

So in my case, never then.
Although I've never like flashy paintjobs.
Smart, understated classy paintjobs are my choice. Symmetry if possible.
The PC600 has about the classiest of the lot.

As long as you moved from NASCAR to Formula 1 as you got older, we're good here.

Seconded. I'm switching to it from my 2013 PS90 as soon as it's released

I'm going throw in the Volkl C10 Pro fishscale paint job as a favorite as well. The fishscale C10, the stealth PB10 Mid (as I said in a previous post), Prestige Tour 600 and Trisys 260 Radical. Funny, now that I look at it. I've never had a Head racquet as my primary stick. Wilson, early on and now Wilson and Volkl in my 30s. They sure do make some good looking racquets, though.

Frost I couldn't agree more ! I would love the pure strike with my specs! Leather grip with a shorter blue tourna grip but leather still visible ala' gasquet style! Oh my word that would be incredible .
Best paint job out there in the last 20 plus years hear hear frost

That's the Slazenger V98 Tour (discontinued now, I believe) with a custom paint job.

Honestly almost every Dunlop stick from the Aerogel thru the Biomimetic series had gorgeous paint jobs, the AG100 4D was the best though.

Pro Staff 85 - painted like the Pro Staff 6.0 95 dual tapered beam my first coach had in the office to loan.
I can't imagine Crockett & Tubbs playing tennis with anything else.
Dishonorable mention goes to the Profile, which looks like it went to the hearing aid factory for paint.

Same... tried hitting with a D1 player's Pure Strike and I didn't like it... too unforgiving, I think.

Really?
I almost bought it because of how well it played. The Ai98 just felt a teeny bit better, though.

yh, and i hated the beam design as well as the width. the gimmicky box+oval shape didnt latch on well with me. and the frame was just too stiff and a tad overpowered, even the headsize bugged me.
really? seemed quite stiff and the throat was quite funny and made me look like a paedophile who wants to lure kids with a flashy racquet.

Haha, actually, I played some good tennis with it. VERY good doubles racquet, total sleeper in that regard.really? seemed quite stiff and the throat was quite funny and made me look like a paedophile who wants to lure kids with a flashy racquet.
It hits a really good kickserve too.

I liked the shape a lot, and the beamwidth.... but I agree, the frame is too stiff. I hit two-handers on both sides, so it takes a lot to make my arms sore. But this frame was starting to do it.
and what's wrong with the headsize? It's a 98....

I am a total sucker for this paintjob. The MG Prestige looks so edgy but retains the traditional prestige paint scheme:
Love the mix of the traditional and new-age paint jobs. Need some more blue and yellow amiright! Just saw you're a Warriors fan.

You bet. I would love to see a Babolat PD or Wilson Ultra with some injections of yellow so I can finally have my dub-nation paint job

My vote is for the 2012/2013 Wilson BLX Pro Staff Six.One 90. The two prior paint jobs of the 90, the K90 and the BLX90 were more in the vein of "cool" paint jobs, but this one has the look of royalty. It is mostly a very pure and elegant white, especially with a white overgrip, has the signature Pro Staff 90 red, and my favorite part is the gold and black pieces. For whatever reason, it reminds me of a laurel and the colors gold and black make it work so perfectly. This is not a paint job that is demanding attention by virtue of an aggressive style; it is a paint job that receives attention without seeking it because of its pure elegance.

Definitely the Volkl PB10 Mid with the stealth paint job. Been hitting some PB10s I acquired used recently and I'm loving them!
Totally agree!! I put black strings and a black overgrip on one of mine and it looks killer.
Great pj! What was the original colour?

From a pantjob design standpoint why cant we have more monochromatic tonal or gradient paintjobs like this? Very classy, its cranberry sauce n wine.One of the best paint jobs of all time.
