New SS Limited Edition
« on: April 17, 2012, 02:43:29 PM »

Hi Guys,

A Punjabi mate of mine brought me back a gift from Punjab in the shape of this brand new SS Limited Edition.

Tapped it up with the mallet and it has more ping than a Chinese phone book!

11 grains, unblemished and beautifully finished.

I have extrateced it, edge taped it and also shoe gooed it.

I have put on a white grip as I love white grips.

Over the years in my line of work people give me bottles of liquor as token of thanks and I collect them...because I don't drink alcohol!

They look good as props in my lounge/dining room!

Bat weighs a shade over 2.8.

Pads weigh 613 grams and are kind of similar to the GM RSB's, but with more protection/padding and thus the extra 88grams (which is next to nothing).

Very good stuff! Like the gloves actually, do they have pittards?

I'm assuming those gloves are similar to SS Test ones, right?

That looks lovely! especially for the weight - really dislike the shape of the toe though.

No Pittards.

The leather on the palm is the softest I have felt since the Newbery SPS gloves.

Excellent quality.
