GN100 Perimeter Weight - Should I or Shouldn't I...?
« on: September 23, 2011, 04:38:51 PM »

Right, Martin Berrill have this beauty on their website, and I'd dearly love to give them 160 of my hard earned pounds for one. I love the way they look, and think that they are a classic..... But...

I've never truly found the middle of a scoop, and they often haven't had great pick up.

I'm torn.... Should I press buy? Your opinions welcome!!!

Just look at it, then watch your money leave your wallet and hand it to the nice guy in the shop.

Are they out? I thought this was a pre order thing.

I know as soon as I see one I'll want to buy it.

Yes, they're massive bats. But I'd hand select it, they're not top grade bats so I'd want to ensure I got a decent one.

My scoop has a great middle and a lovely pick up! Hand picking one does sound like a good idea if you can

I remember scoops having light pick ups and great middles but that may ve nostalgia talking but that is what is also tempting me to get one

Just buy one pete so I can get it off you later

Sadly the price is too high, and it costs more than £45.
