the bay confirms. items 252400300398 252403752253
Then n.1 and 3 are visibly bigger that 2 + Ncode n1 was a good lead
CONFIRMED
2= Babolat pure storm team zylon, model in 103sq size
1= Wilson Ncode n3 113sq
confirmation http://www.thetennisspot.net/wilsonncoden3-113oversize.aspx
Both confirmed racquets are from 2004... so I think I'll fix that title and work on that last staff cause it has that ProStaff look, but BLACK inside the beams while ncodes were whiteish
atm Thanks @JoshTheLMT, @vsbabolat, @El_Yotamo

# 3 Prince O3 pink
There are several models with that name.
The oldest is a pj of the O3 Silver 120 s.
Later versions were based on the TX 148 - 110 head size mold
Check Engineering code on the shaft
@haqq777
The Susan B has the Pink ribbon on the frame. If that frame doesn't it is one of the latter SMU.
I played the Citron which is the benefit model for veterans TX 148A 110; 7TW78
The last five characters tell you the layup down to handle type and butt cap.

Prince used extra material at 10 and 2 o'clock or made it appear to use extra material there on their Triple Threat rackets. What TT used to stand for before Textreme Tour.

Thanks. You are spot on. The Limited Edition indeed has the ribbon on the outside of the throat right at the top of the handle. As you can see in the pick OP posted, there is a ribbon. You have to zoom in a bit.

Extra material 10 & 2 bump outs in the hoop; with extra weight in the butt. Factory polarization. I first used them in the Prince More series of frames

I believe #4 is a Wilson hammer tour 95 variant. Maybe a light or oversize hammer tour?
The normal one was black with red pws at 3,9 o'clock. This one is exactly a reverse pj.

While @OnyxZ28 hint is powerful, the Hammer XP lacks those dinstictive White lines around PWS, the very ones that make that staff more serious.
Here's a sketch
btw I based the sketch on PS97 because all I had to do is to strighten those oblique white lines, paint the throat Red (just outside) & change the leathergrip.
