Evening all, finally got round to sorting some bats out with Rob. These are the kind of blades you can expect if you were to make an order through the forum. Every bat shown is an MP+1 which is the top of the range from BlueRoom, and can be made to all shapes, sizes and specifications. Prices now are £180 or £200 if you would like your bat match ready - Knocked in by hand, oiled and with or without anti scuff. the images below are an example of what is being produced everyday and yes they are all for sale, one has already gone to a member of the forum. Rob also has Low density clefts available if anyone is after something special.
Enjoy the pics, go on treat yourself it is Christmas afterall.

All specs catered to and custom services available at the no extra charge.

All top notch. I'm sure some of us will treat ourselves! ;) Have people dusafreeed over the stickers in the past: I like them, they look great!
Johan.
-
the stickers were something i wasnt sure of until i saw them in the workshop mate. they look great though and have a layered effect so its not a completely flat sticker.
-
Excusing the now customary stupidity on my part, are all these for sale? If so can you grab us the specs? Very nice indeed.
-
Lol, good question though. Abd could you tell me which ones are the pro bats: I can't tell :( Prices fir everything would be helpful if they're for sale? :)

Mate you're having a nightmare typing on the ipod tonight :D
-
Tell me about it! :( At least I spelt that one right...oh wait..I did :D I type fast so it's usually poor but you understand the general point...
-
I was determined not to buy another bat before the start of the season but the determination is starting to weaken - SAF or one of these seem to be doing the damage! :D
-
Brilliant sticks! The swell one is really going on me. The high spine etc etc.
Is it me but in the very first picture the bottom two bats look similar with the bottom one having little concaving.
-
dont worry we all have those days, yes they are all for sale, just an example of what can be made if anyone was to order, or if you have seen something specific in the pics i can indeed get some specs. all bats are £180 (including the 2 Pro bats) and the 2 in question are the 2 on the right in pic 3 and 4 Johan.
Cheers. I realise these are examples, but I would be in your debt of you could find out the weights of the ones shown, as one or two are potentially interesting.
Ta
-
Cheers Liam. They all look great! Charlie, I'd recommend either brand. I've got a saf and it's great, but these look just as nice, and go like rickets from what I've heard! :) another question for you liam, will rob be selling any Poona pro rejected bats on here, and who were the bats made for? If you know all this :)
cheers!
-
Ideally id love to have one of each :D but as i shouldnt be having any best not lol. Price of both is the same so who knows. I must stop looking ;)
-
Ok cheers. Well all of them look great so I doubt there's any point paying the extra £100!
-
not really, his contract with Puma means he cannot sell their equipment at less than Store price.
-
More bat porn. Stop trying to turn me into the hosk.
-
Hey PWB88,
Which bat picks up the lightest, yours or simmies. I am thinking of getting your profile after looking at the bat cave thread again.
-
I would love to know why my bat has been listed for sale on here
-
Droolin over the 18 grainer :P

Cheers lads
DOn't panic mate, I asked PW for the weights of the ones for sale and he made it clear that one was for you.
-
Righto Jon...
I have just come back from down south, after 5 days worth of house fixing due to flooding, I thought the one ray of light in my life has been taken away from me ;)
If I'm honest, that's the first picture I have seen with it all stickered up!

Yeh I think it could be made a bit clearer as the initial post suggests they are all available, but no, it is very firmly yours.
-
I bloody hope so considering I am £200 lighter than I was last week...impressed with what I see though...
Was that one of the bats you were interested then?

Well to be honest I put 2 and 2 together knowing it was a prototype, I guessed that one was indeed yours when I saw them, but they all look great, I'd reject none of them.
-
Hey guys, how come only one of the bats (w/ pink stickers) is darker than the rest? Is it the oiling?
-
Apologies will, I only noticed it was yours after I had written the topic. It's safe and will have been sent out to you so do not PANIC :D
Skipper it's oiled as was ready to go to Aus
Lazza, they both weigh 2.10 but I'd say mine has a slightly lighter pick up, only slightly though, there's not much between them considering the vast difference in shape
-
Im loving these blue room bats........
think i could be very tempted
-
I did think it was strange Pidge! No bother mate, must admit is looks even better now it's stickered up
-
As I said mate, I never even noticed it was yours until the thread was up. It looks Massive though!! Topic has been modified to state one is yours now, just let me know when it arrives, I'm sure you'll be pleased with it lad.
-
liams bat picks up alot lighter than mine its balanced perfectly mine feels tad heavier and the weight feels more bottom heavy than his.

My bat would kick your bats (No Swearing Please)
-
your bat is (No Swearing Please) massive lol
i well want one like that however it would do more damage if it was attatched to my big fat arms! lol
-
Shame you don't live closer mate, would could wife swap for a net session!
-
Simmy your bat isnt that differentilk pick up to mine, mine is balanced a bit better as it has a slightly higher middle, but thats more to do with the profile, your middle is slightly lower so it will be a touch more bottom heavy. Wills bat is huge though, I knew It would be big but that thing is a Monster for 2.11 then again yours isn't exactly tiny simmy is it
-
yours isn't exactly tiny simmy is it
it is mate :( :( :(
-
Give over man. Your just jealous of Wills new weapon that's all ;)
-
it is mate :( :( :(
It's not the size of the nail mate, it's the hammer your hitting it with...
OR
who cares if it's small when you've got 16stone of filth behind it.......
-
i think wills over compencating for something lol
-
This coming from the man with the Audi...
-
audi makes sence more room in the boot for gear ;) lol
there is just no need to have a bat that big not that am jealous or anything
-
If you want one Simon all you have to do is ask :)
-
yeah comes with a £180 bill as well! should of saved are trip till now lol
-
There is that minuscule detail yes
-
I could say that I feel sorry for you both
But I would be lying ;)
-
PW88
Do you know when ill hear back on what i have asked for
-
Don't feel sorry for me lad. My bat will take some beating. Even by a big meaty thing like yours :)
Longy- I am trying to get hold of the main man as we speak, his phone is engaged.
Any further questions send me a PM and I will do everything possible
-
Still have two of these bats available guys. The Plain bat far right - weight of 2,8. Expect to be 2.10 with stickers and a grip. and the pink wipe out at 2.9 finished. Both bats have 10 plus grains as can be seen on the images wouldn't want to estimate the totals as I'm using the iPhone at the moment. Bats are priced at £180 each.
Thanks
-
Tempting :D. Any chance of some better pics of the 2 left or not?
-
Not at this exact time as rob has left the workshop. If it helps the profile pics for each are on the website. The pink is a traditional wipe out and the plain Albie bat is a new wave shape with slight concaving. If I can get some images by tomorrow am I will get them up as soon as I get to work. Sorry
-
im fairly local to northants - would rob be open to me coming over and discussing what id like in my bat if i decided to come and get one? a true custom experience?
-
Apologies to anyone waiting for a response, I've been training. He certainly would. He likes the custom service as it's one to one time with you, you can discuss in detail everything you want in the bat and he will discuss your technique and how you play as well. When I went with simmy he went through it all with us before getting the process underway. Would you like me to ask him
When he's free?

ok mate cool, let me know when he is available

I'll speak with him tomorrow. A better question might be when would you be free? That way he can accommodate you, it's you that'll be making the effort to go see him and he does enjoy the visits :)
