Post by: THERUBIN on February 26, 2010, 11:56:09 AM

Just received it yesterday, from Talisman, so I haven't tried it yet.

yeah seems to vibrate alot more but only got one grip on it ATM so may up that to two and see if that helps.

Looks very straight with not much of a bow?

Grains look superb, isn't the c6 spliceless as well?

niceonechoppy - depents on what spliceless means?

no splice and the carbon rod attatching the handle to the blade, it should be spliceless

looks a great bat, the only thing that lets it down for me is the grip! put a nice white or yellow on there!

It was the only thing I had, but I will get at white one soon,,,

What would you guys do, keep the surface clean, put fiber tape on the edges or use a hammer edge bat sheet?

I would put a hammer edge on there, not a fan of the tape approach.

personally I would put some antiscuff on it as it will protect the blade - but a clean bat always looks better.

second the hammeredge recommendation. I'd also go for a non white grip as white ones start to look filthy very quickly..personal preference of course.
