Title: Long Blade to Short Handle
Post by: AlRidd on June 02, 2010, 11:38:35 AM

Hi,

Looking to take a little bit of weight off of my Long Blade bat by having it chopped down to the same length as a standard blade, what are the pro's and con's of having this done and who could offer this service?

Thanks in advance,
Alex

Long blade to standard blade - take a drum sander to the toe, reduce the toe by about half an inch or so, reduces the weight and is fairly straight forward. I can do this for free for you if you pay return postage - but in all honesty, if you own a drum sander or sanding paper then you should be able to do it yourself.
