Got to admit the 505 false grains looks very good.

just wondering about the fake grains , can GM control how much grains there going to put on each bat seeing as there printed ?

One print only, looks good but not 20 grains.

I can see a market for fake grain scuff sheets with 20 ruler straight grains being snapped up by forum members

All the same grade of willow, just depends how clean the grains are. 606 should be the best but no harm in knocking up some 404/505's as well, see if one sounds better off a mallet. I've seen 15 grain 404's that could easily pass for 707's. Bleaching and fake grains sheets are akin to fraud in my book - attempting to hide something from the consumer. All bats should shown in there original form.

GM don't make one according to the website - would be a very interesting proposition. A cheap bat with a big (but heavy) profile.
