What stickers are on that?

Player editions will carry Whatever the player is using at the time. We've got a travis head bat ordered and due for delivery soon so I'll be able to tell you for sure @smilley792

Well kind of but I suspect as mine was only 1 of 5 of the Inital batch I suspect.

1271 was done in his profile for him but there 5 others with numbers as each bat at b3 has it own unique number.

1271 was the one he left behind and I got my grubby mits on.

Funny some guy on eBay had even written 1271 on the bat he was selling....

1271 is in my shed

I was the mug that bought it. I did however return it for a full refund after speaking with B3

Think the same best comes up on eBay every few months - was that the one that did have CA stickers on plus the shoddy bit of tape on the toe?

Yes. After I received and questioned the seller, he claimed it was a Pakistan players bat. I was never told it had CA stickers on, just that it was meant to. Tape didn't seem to be hiding anything.

I'll be honest, it was huge for its weight. Never seen anything like it. It seemed like a decent bat.

As B3 said they are not sure if they made it and it is definitely not 1271, seller also claimed it is crown willow but I wasn't so sure about that either, I returned it. (I didn't realise that every bat in that profile is not given the same number until i read this thread). Suppose it could have been a genuine trott profile. I will buy one when I get round to it but that is my second failed attempt.

@Tailendfielder I did speak to the seller but passed at the time based on price / grey areas. Did look huge, decent shape and a fair bit of willow. Believe it's passed through a couple of forum hands since (now minus stickers after a refurb) and is on eBay at the moment.

sounds like it has been around a bit! At some point we might find out its real story.

Great to see Trotty back with GM. Sounds weird, and maybe it just coincided with a great run of form but I always think of him in his pomp with the Icon, and those LE softs always looked great.
