Title: Ginger's New Red Ink Twins (Custom X* and X2)
Post by: Gingerbusiness on October 27, 2014, 05:30:59 PM: Evening all,

Looking at edge's new Red Inker, I decided to post pictures of the twins John made for me.

There are two bats here - A X* and an X2. I basically moaned at John to send me pictures of his clefts before the deal that came out so I could pick a couple - having received them today, I am extremely happy.

Specs are as follows;

X*

2lb 9oz
13 Grains
No Heartwood
No Concaving
34mm Edges
58mm Spine

X2

2lb 9.5oz
15 Grains
No Heartwood
No Concaving
32mm Edges
55mm Spine

Pickup is great and feel very, very solid. John produces a fantastic handle shape!

Any questions, drop them below.

Cheers All!

Cheers mate.

Had a really good season last year and it is nice to be playing a higher level again so thought I would treat myself to a few goodies.
