Help me collate old Slazenger V12, V100 & V500 bats.
« on: November 13, 2016, 03:39:22 AM »

I've got a bit of a fetish with old Slazenger bats from 1982 through to the mid 1990's.  I've recently been able to pick up a number of these vintage bats via Ebay and Gumtree recently.

I would appreciate anyone to chime in and post if you have any pictures or information (no matter how insignificant you think it might be) on the V12, V100 & V500 bats from this era.  This will assist me to identify the different sticker and profile combinations through the years so I know what I need to complete my collection.  Example: I know the V12 came in various types: i.e. V12 Clear Polyarmoured, V12 Polyarmoured (white), V12 Cleanskin/Untreated, V12 Colt, V12 County, V12 Panther etc but would like information on what were the differences between these bats and also RRP $$ at the time of release.   

I have attached an old Slazenger ad from around 1989/90 to this thread.  The V100 on the top left of this ad is listed as a V100 'Chunky'.  Does anyone remember this particular bat and have any info on the design as to what the term 'Chunky' refers to?  I'm assuming it may have been a thicker edged bat in comparison to most bats of that era. 

Cheers

My first ever bat was a v100 armourtec- good memories of that bat. Wish I still had it to see how different it is to what I use now

I don't know how to put this, but, I'm kind of a big deal.

I had an old v12 county which was £70 back in 1989 roughly. It had a natural face whith perfect grains. Been looking on eBay for years for one,  if you have any pics of any would love to see them.

I think it was lamby hitting 18 off Bruce Reid in the last over what did it for me.

1985 ish V100 was the best bat I've ever owned. Still have it, I don't play with it but I tidied it up recently and it still works!
