Gray Nicolls ashes bat
« on: August 26, 2013, 06:05:57 PM »

Has anyone acutely got one made yet I know you can only choose certain models but 220 for a le bat made by Alex has to be a bargain I ordered one last week just being inpatient off what the quality will be like I hope it a half decent stick has any one seen one in the flesh  :)

Mate you do realise that the post count for selling has been upped to 300 now. I reckon you'll get bored of asking stupid questions and pointless posts before then!

I think the point he is making mate is that a few of the posts I have seen from yourself have been little one liners like, "nice bat" what weight and comments to that description. Possibly just need to have a bit more substance to your posting mate that's all.

i got the cricket ashes bat and the bat just arrived, got bat number 88, wasn't a bad bat but i don't think its good enough willow for a player reserve willow as the website said.

Nice bat, like the lack of concaving on the back. Bit too much hartwood for me

Good work Chadders

I'll bet you're looking forward to reading the essay/review! ;)


Nice bat, like the lack of concaving on the back. Bit too much hartwood for me

Yeah, a fair amount of heartwood, but it doesn't really affect performance. It would just be boring if no bats in my collection had any heartwood, so I don't mind this one. :) It's actually very very slightly concaved around the middle of the bat, but it is hardly noticeable. I like how it is convex at the toe area.


I think that's lovely Chad.

Cheers :)

I don't think it's top willow, ie Legend grade, but it's LE grade. This is pressed really well, and reminds me a lot of the Legend, and looks a lot better than some of the Legends I have seen in picture!

Chuck your pictures up! ;) If you check the shoulder stamps, I'm sure they will say A and N. They may have just forgotten to stamp mine, or maybe they bowed it a little too much, so it would have been an awkward stamp, I'm not sure! I did ask for an e41, but I also asked for minimal concaving and an oval handle, so I essentially got an e37 with minimal concaving. ;)
