Title: Gold
Post by: Aldred Cricket Bats on January 04, 2014, 02:30:38 PM
A nice gold going out. We are having the stickers re done on these too but they will be known as gold and silver. This is 2-9 grade 2, not the biggest bat in the world but wow does it feel good

I shall keep our top end clefts at the same price as 2013 until the new website is up and running hopefully in the next few days. They won't be too far off this price when we change to be honest. These are incredibly good value at that price so if you get in touch via email I will try and help you out. aldred173@btinternet.com

Having rec'd this bat through the post this week - it's actually for one of our U15s - it's even better than it looks in the pictures. Lovely shape and profile, excellent size and shape to the handle, and very nicely finished indeed. Picks up very well, taps up great. With the mallet, there's plenty of middle to it too - a real clicker as we say round these parts. My lad (enviously!) remarked how well finished this bat was when compared to many others we've touched & felt from other manufacturers. As I say, this was actually bought as a gift to a deserving recipient at my club and he will be very well pleased indeed. The stickers - although in the process of being changed - are very nice actually, good quality, and again, look even better close up than they do in the pics. They don't cover vast amounts of the bat, and especially at the handle end of the blade, you can see some of the willow, so often covered up by larger stickers.

All in all, a top quality bat, it looks a real classy stick. Paul has been excellent throughout the process and has interpreted the specs I asked for spot on. Beautiful shape.     

Many thanks Paul - it's a top job and thanks for your help.
