My Platinum (Peerless)
« on: June 27, 2008, 10:30:00 AM »
Here are some pictures of the Warsop I received this morning. It weighs 2lbs8, picks up well, has 25mm edges and is a cross between the standard Platinum and Platinum Peerless shape. A fair bit of the face is covered by edge tape but there are 15 grains in total, with some heartwood. I haven't managed to get a decent profile picture yet but it will follow later:









Review to follow after some more 'testing'

Willow looks very nice, I have a Newbery in that shape from one of the Derbyshire players not to my taste though.

Stickers look brill also, a good looking bat  :)

Not my favourite profile, however the grains look gorgeous!  Also love the custom stickers, do they cost more?

I wanted a flatback traditional profile as a change from my usual bats and I'm really pleased with how it turned out. The stickers do cost a little bit extra, £7ish if I remember correctly, but well worth it in my opinion

Well you got exactly what you want, and I think I would pay the extra £7 for custom stickers.  Looks a lovely bat!  Hope it scores loads of runs for ya!
