Title: As promised the NEW look Jedi Abalest
Post by: The Cricket Boutique on October 05, 2016, 05:38:52 PM
Hello again.

As promised earlier on the new Zaramax thread here is the new look Jedi Abalest. Again personally I believe this is a big improvement on the previous stickers.

This bat is a Players grade 2lb 10 5/8oz and is available for £195 delivered in the UK. There is a small knot on the edge which has been hidden by a small sticker hence the reason this one is the grade/price it is.

If you are interested or would like a Jedi bat made to a specific weight etc then drop us a message. (I will be collecting more bats next week so let me know asap if you want quick delivery).

Enjoy.

This one is a bit less loud than the Zaramax

I like the new designs and feel these will appeal to a wider range of people than last year's ranges.

Don't make a star wars joke, don't make a star wars joke...

I don't think you will need to force Jedi bats one many people.

Id take those two small stickers off the back, looks too cluttered IMO. Shape is nice and great price point.

Thanks for the feedback. A couple of people have said the same about too many stickers.

I definitely agree with the price point etc. The price for what you are getting is fantastic.

Question is what does it look like without the stickers?

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD MAKE THE 'I' IN JEDI UPPER (edit: not lower!) CASE!

It's out of sync with the upper case of the rest of the lettering and looks more like a colon ":" as it's so squashed!

Looks much better than the Zaramax stickers. Again, can do without those stickers on the back in the middle of the stick.

That's the one! My fronthing typeface rage was clouding my communication abilities!  :( ;)

But the company name is JEDi...

I have a couple of JEDi bats - one acquired through the Groupon offer last year, an LE, and a 5* which I purchased from TCB for a very good price. The 5* is the lighter of the two and I scored a couple of late order red-inkers, 30 and 40 odds.

James did a really good repair and refurb too.

I think the new stickers look pretty good especially the Zaramax.

Glad you are getting some runs! Maybe I should invest in one to and change my batting fortunes.  ;)

Been to Jedi workshop this afternoon, James is a great bloke very welcoming and friendly

New stickers are an improvement on past designs and he's simplified his range, soft gear also very good, and for the price, he is knocking out some nice looking big bats

Has James dropped the Renegade from his range? Shame if he has.

Yes he has. He can still make them up if requested I believe but really it's down to the Zaramax and Abalest now.

New softs coming towards the end of the month also in line with the new stickers.

The JED part is the batmaker's initials.

I'm so glad you revived this thread after three and a half years to clear that up!

It amused me to do so. There's a story behind it, but I don't think I can be bothered to try to explain. (Phone or internet search gremlins, basically.)
