He could, but legally perhaps not.

You might as well buy a Series Grade MMi3. Similar price, probably similar willow.

Yes they can make them, last time I was at Solitaire they had one made up - it wasn't as short of blade as a mongoose, much more like the size of a Joker. They're the same price as his standard blades.

Grade 3 willow :S

Having seen a few solitaires I would argue that the Series Mongoose range is often better looking.

What would the performance of a series mongoose be like to the super premium?

Graded on looks, so it really does vary.

Apparently Solitaire only have G1 bats, they don't offer different prices for different grades.

I've played with 2 solitaires, my old one(which the club bought off me) and also my mates. Both very good looking bats and they both fly out of the middle.
