Bit tricky making a 2-10 that picks up like a 2-8 with a very low middle  :)

I thought I would give you a challenge  :)

So you went with a Aldred in the end then. A bit surprising. But looks like it will be a great looking bat.

We like to keep people updated as far as their bat is going a couple more of krs' bat having had its first sanding and oil and then it will have another coat of oil before final sanding and polishing. Its a beauty that's for sure. Nearly lost it to myself I must say  :D

Looks lovely, is that the Vintage profile? I remember mine picking up really well for a bat with that low a middle! :)

No it's not a vintage profile it's just got a very long middle. Just supreme modified to what was talked about and requested

Ah right, fair enough. Looks lovely, any plans to release a different profile?

Would it be possible to make a bat with a spine that runs all the way to the toe? I am not a fan of the duck bill toe. I would be interested if it was possible to make one to a very similar shape to my GN X181. Thanks

Well here it is!!!

Paul just sent me the pictures of my Supreme.

All that has to be done is a coat of PGA on the toe to just give it a touch of protection from any moisture it may pick up in use.







Super excited now!! I cannot wait to get my hands on it.

I think this look's like a cracking bat mate, Aldred has definately delivered the goods on this one. being able to specify what cleft you want is definately a big reason to go custom. If i was choosing a cleft i'd want a butterfly stain, but thats personal preference ;).

The whole experience has been great.

Watching the bat being made from every step has been a joy! I cannot wait to test this out.

The edges are a nice 38mm to which is a nice little bonus :)
