Maybe out of the larger brands. But statement does not take into consideration some small brands I would say!!

Oh, for goodness sake!
I'm destined to never own one :(

He should have used someone's facility or rented a small corner in there to keep whittling the bats if there is such a high demand of his work.
I think he tried a very hard route in hopes of huge donations to pour in so that he could pass on his skills by, I dunno, establishing bat making schools in India or whatever it was.
-
There wasn't a huge demand for his bats, they didn't retail very well at all and obviously wasn't worth it in the end for him to keep going.
-
I think their stock has risen since he's ceased making them as they are obviously harder to get hold of now in a decent condition.
They were v expensive when he was making them from memory when it came to getting them to the UK at £550 which was why they usually inc a free set of gloves with them to sweeten the deal. Back in 2010 that type of money was huge for G1 bats!
-
He should start making these again as a limited edition. Like 50 bats every year. i am sure people will pay more than the warner bat.
-
why can't any of the current bat makers make bats like him if there is so much demand for his bats??

I can understand if people want the bat for collection purposes, but for all practical purposes, bats on the market now are better performing. And yes, I owned one and used it extensively, and gave it away to someone on this forum

Agree 100%. Guy i net with has had a few scats but nothing compares to the warner players he is using. He is hitting the ball harder than i have ever seen anyone hit it.
