I am very surprised at that finishing! Do you think they sort of 'forgot'?

Get a sheet of 600 grit wet and dry on that. Whack a touch of bat wax and your laughing!

I don't think so, I've seen it on quite a few M+H's recently that their finishing isn't up to 'scratch'

Just used my Amplus for the first time this W/E , 1 off the toe, 6, 2 right out of the middle cleared the ground.  The high middle is great, I play on synthetic turf.  The middle is definitely long.

The finish on the back of the bat, well, as stated here already, pretty ordinary.

The bat was on sale and I thought it was a good deal. I opted for Amplus because it is a well-known model for its performance and high sweet spot. I have yet to take it to the nets but by just bouncing a ball on the face, I can tell that it has an amazing rebound.

I did exactly the same but with buying all the master as well. I sent it back just under a month ago after feeling that it wasn't my cup of tea, still haven't received a refund from them :S On terms of what they 'forgot' in finishing of your bat, I think they must forget about refunds too ;)

Much of the comments about finishing I agree with 110%.

Further if you own one like I do your comments are even more valid?

If you bat with one lucky you, best bat I've ever used!

the amplus was one of those bats M and H got right, very different when it first came out as it had such a high middle which you would not think would be suitable

but ive used one and 3 other team mates have them and rave about them

Have to agree with a lot of comments here.
Fantastic ping, long middle, good balance, beautiful profile, expertly made but rough finish and overpriced.
I absolutely love mine  :D
