Title: Salix AJK eBay refurb
Post by: SOULMAN1012 on April 25, 2016, 06:00:23 AM

Hi all. Managed to pick up this beauty from the well known auction site. Done one kindly posted under the eBay bargains section and I managed to get the seller to sell to me for what I felt was a good price. This is the top end offering from AJK and is like the finite model of Salix bats. Arguably my favourite ever bat having already got 1 of these and having owned 4 now.

Any way bat weighs 2.9 as seller stated, the bat wasn't in great shape and hadn't been well looked after, some cracks in the edge, scuff hanging off, edge take peeling away, grip ruined. So she has had the start of her refurb with edge cracks glued, blade and edges sanded removing old edge tape, single coat of bat wax and here she is

Nice job this one is coming along nicely
Great to see these threads where top end bats are bought back in the condition they should be
Very nice shape on this model :)
