FOR THE LOVE OF GOD MAKE THE 'I' IN JEDI UPPER (edit: not lower!) CASE!

It's out of sync with the upper case of the rest of the lettering and looks more like a colon ":" as it's so squashed!

Man makes a good point.

I have a couple of JEDi bats - one acquired through the Groupon offer last year, an LE, and a 5* which I purchased from TCB for a very good price. The 5* is the lighter of the two and I scored a couple of late order red-inkers, 30 and 40 odds.

James did a really good repair and refurb too.

I think the new stickers look pretty good especially the Zaramax.

Glad you are getting some runs! Maybe I should invest in one to and change my batting fortunes.  ;)

Been to Jedi workshop this afternoon, James is a great bloke very welcoming and friendly

New stickers are an improvement on past designs and he's simplified his range, soft gear also very good, and for the price, he is knocking out some nice looking big bats

Has James dropped the Renegade from his range? Shame if he has.

Yes he has. He can still make them up if requested I believe but really it's down to the Zaramax and Abalest now.

New softs coming towards the end of the month also in line with the new stickers.

The JED part is the batmaker's initials.

I'm so glad you revived this thread after three and a half years to clear that up!

It amused me to do so. There's a story behind it, but I don't think I can be bothered to try to explain. (Phone or internet search gremlins, basically.)
