People,
Just having a look around to see firstly who offers the custom made experience (where you can go and visit the batmaker) and also the cost.
I have noticed that Millichamp and Hall now charge £425!!
Forum sponsors do you offer this and at what cost?
Reds
-
Whoever offers - take Saunders with you. If you distract them, he's the right height to spirit away some gear that's displayed below counter height!
-
RPC still offers custom experience. Visit can be arranged at customers discretion. Bespoke bats can also be ordered online now as well as most other Blueroom / RPC gears.

Hawk don't do this mate. Delt with them before, you select your cleft and then they make the shape and you collect a week later
-
ask Aldred
-
H4L do something similar, but Warsop will make you a custom for £180!
-
Been to h4l aldred and rob pack off here for this service and all were great to deal with

They did with me ???

Salix offer this mate on any model or grade.
-
List the ones who do it
H4L
Rob pack
Salix
Aldred
Etc etc
Then list out price
No point paying significantly more for the same product. All will be top bats, all will be to your specs, looks etc etc

By arrangement i went to Hawk selected my cleft which was pressed shaped and handled in my presence i returned two weeks to collect the bat following sanding etc.

I know this is a very old topic now, but are there any batmakers who offer this kind of deal in the north/Midlands? I'm based in Sheffield

We offer this so does Ryan Kelsall so do JEDI cRICKET.
B3 we can offer this in any grade and almost any size ultimate options really!!!

Hawk cricket operate on a personal basis and welcome customers and visitors to there workshop just outside Stourbridge to discuss there requirements.
If you wish you can select your own cleft the bat will be then handcrafted to your own specs from start to finish inc the handle in there workshop.
I was invited to spend time there while my bat was being made to ensure it felt right i then collected the bat two weeks later following the five star finish.

Jake at Vitas has links with Hunts County for bespoke work - he is definitely worth a shout. I had a bat done by Red Ink and couldn't fault the service or the product. I've also had a black cat custom done - the bat was lovely but it is expensive and Charlie's communications are sporadic at best. It comes down to budget and brand desire too - who's bats do you love and is it compatible with your cash flow? And of course will your softs match your bat? Package deals may bring some healthy savings - it's always worth bartering a bit when you're going for the full whack....

That's right Dave, i can do this at no extra cost. I've done it for a few people already and find its a good way to make sure the customer gets exactly what they want.
-
Mate as you know me although i represent B3 always willing to praise others Ryan makes good bats no doubting that pal.

The people here with them basically select cleft,ms elect shape and that's it.. Weeks later it appears and the last three have been sent back as its not right.

Have to agree with this.
A few years back I had only come across one Hawk (Old stickers) and it was rock hard. Over the winter and this season I've seen multiple and they have all been absolute weapons! XB900 seems to be the weapon of choice

I had about 5 Jedi bats in last year for knocking in, they were awful. Not sure where they fitted into their range but if I ordered any of them I would be very disappointed.

3 of their models are selling really well around my area. 900,700 and 300. Great bats and the fact the guys working there are great probably helps sales

This is correct they used to be IMO pressed hard but the key for me was to ask for a pressing so that the bat pinged after knocking in.
