Has anyone played with the Slazenger Panther Pro Ceramic (Jimmy Connor racquet)?

I saw a 2nd hand Slazenger Panther Pro Ceramic (Used by Jimmy Connors) for sale and I am wondering how it plays. I cannot find any information on this board and the internet. Has anyone experience with this racquet?

I've hit with this racquet in the eighties. A friend of mine owned one. Geez, it was sooo long ago. I don't remember the year, it is a great racquet from what I remember. A good hit. I'd buy it. I was using a Max 200g at the time. I remember Tennis Magazine gave it a great review.

I remember using it briefly. Very heavy. Hard to maneuver.

Hey thanks for the replies. Hahaha, this one is indeed an oldie! Im now kinda into buying old racquets. Do u still remember how control, comfort and the size of the sweetspot was?

I sure did. it was a very average frame; don't get me wrong a solid performer, but no ultra II or prestige and it came with a vibration dampner, thats the "death blow for a racket with me.
