I'd get an AS V12 - will go against the grain of the CA likers on here, have it made as you by their bat maker. (May have to change the handles as they ain't great) only ever had performing, well pressed bats from AS. V12's are better performing than the V10's I've had/seen.
And to fly a little in the face of the 'over dried' concept, I can only speak from experience but had 3 for a year and a half now - and only a few small cosmetic surface cracks on edges.....I do knock my bats in hard however - and for a long time.
And they occasionally help me hit sixes....ok that might not be the bat ;-)
