GM Icon 707
« on: October 06, 2011, 07:07:32 PM »
I picked this up in the jjb sales, I thought £57.99 for a GM Icon 707 was good value. Bat weighs 2'9 and I reckon the edges are decent, around 30mm maybe a touch over. It's a nice mid middle profile and the pickup is probably the best I have felt on a 2'9 bat. The big test will be actually using it, os expect an update late November.

Looks a beauty for shy of £60.

Your Flare 707 looked pretty good Leo. The face isnt perfect, some discolouration and some marks at the top but that's why it's not a 808/909 etc.

Looks good.

Do you mind if I ask you that was the bat you bought same as the one they had on the page when you paid for it [when you hover over the picture]?

I am also planning on spending some bucks..

The jjb pics are all stock images, it's pretty much lucky dip but it was a GM Icon 707 from memory. Taps up ok but nothing so different from other bats I own at the moment, all GM bats need a bit of playing in though. Its why I'll reserve judgement until  I've had a few net sessions with it.
