A lot of rubbish being posted in this thread. Plenty of good bat makers in Sydney and Perth. You don't need to look to England to get a top quality bat. Do some research.

Not really any bat makers of note in Australia now, few garage guy's but if JM couldn't to make a living out of it, it shows you how tough it is.
Ever heard of Bradbury Cricket guys ?Have been making customised bats for 5 year olds to Test cricketers for nearly 22 years and still going strong out of a specialised workshop.

Meulemans Grove av24 is exactly what you are looking for and yes they come in 2.7.

Occasionally Greg Chappell get a bat maker in-store to custom make a bat for you. Might be worth contacting them to find out when the next opportunity for a custom may come up

Contact Lauchlan Fisher in Melbourne, JPGavan in Sydney or the Bradburys in Perth. Cannot go wrong with any of them.

Paul and Sally did an "ask the batmakers" session on here recently. Really good guys and they make lovely bats.

Not sure what the exchange rate is but I doubt you will get a better value custom bat at the moment than one of John's from Red Ink.

I would suggest going for Laver & Wood. They have specials running around time to time which will make it a really good deal.
