Up for your consideration are two type of 1980's Wilson Matrix Racquets First: The earlier 1980 Matrix in the Black and red. - Designed by Wilson mixing the Sting and The Ultra for a stiffer frame with added power and control.

Tension 55 to 65lbs.  Gamma F/X Grip 27" Standard lengthRacquet strung with Synthetic Gut 16ga. At 60lbs. But cap with the initials DKU indicating make,Model Location of distribution. 
Second: The later 80's version of the Matrix in Blue & Gray with the new patented "Perimeter Weighting System" designed to give advantage of re-positioned weight to provide extra stability, power and control in a lightweight racquet. All in all more flex with more power. In my opinion the better of the two and more responsive in today's market this racquet could still stand up with the newer ones if you like a smaller head size.

Geared more for the 4.0 to higher end players its still a remarkable racquet. Both adult racquets and I would gear it more towards the collector out there, these would be great added to your collection - Up on the wall for display at home, Man Cave, Business or sports bar.
