Mine arrived today, with a ding! Despite the packaging being what I deemed to be adequate, this still somehow happened... Very minor though, and will post up some pics and my thoughts shortly, as according to the CBF's 1st law, this bat doesn't exist yet.

Steam it

Well here she is! A 3 stripe in the profile @simonmay5 designed for his friend! It was model number 4366, but on this particular one, it says 4430, so I'm not entirely sure what shape this one is, but it seems to match Simon's! Do they all get different serial numbers even if they're the same shape as one in the database? Anyways, the pics!









And the slightest of dinks:



It has a blemish near the middle has a fair few specks, I think I counted at least 20! "It's as blemished as a pubescent teenage boy!" - to steal a phrase from @smokem. Weighs in at 2.11, and the ping is not too shabby at all. A proper write up and my thoughts on it will come later! (Yes, despite the blemishes I'm pretty darn happy with what I've received!)

Really nice profile. The toe seems nice and thick. Each bat gets a unique number. I had confirmed this with the doc when I noticed the number on my mull was different from yours and tushars.

Yeah I think the number is specific to the bat and is kinda like the order number. So I'm guessing B3 has made 4400+ bats so far

Also how many bats is that now @Chad , you've been very busy this winter?

Didn't they start at 1000?

Oh good work @sarg yeah it seems like 1000 was the starting point, so they've made 3400+ bats then

 Each bat does indeed get it own unique bat number and yes we did start at 1000 (that was my bat) now resides at b3.

The number is correct but we have made many more via other makers and players which do not get numbered.

Looks a treat Chad

I agree with @procricket B3 it looks really good mate, I love how full the profile is and the thickness of the toe and to top it off you picked what I think are the best stickers in the range. I think I will have to note down this shape number as its a real good 'un

Good looking bat there

Go on...[emoji6]

We know protecting the identity of these brands is covered by commercial agreements is not NEW, must be a BALANCE-ing act getting them through PRO-duction .

Also there is no way I can work HELIX into this poor attempt at humour, even if the later label is no longer the case.[emoji12]

@Chad I love that profile. I wanted to move away of duckbill to that style of toe, but that toe is so thick. Will it get a run during the season? How is the pick-up? The handle set is forward and a slight Bow.

Nice bat there @Chad . The white stickers make it all the more striking.
