I agree that application of stickers does not really look good on the bat but linking it to a particular country's style could have been avoided (because it is NOT), even if all Forum members are entitled to their opinions.

Agreed. "Garish" might have been better. But hey, Tis the season of goodwill to all men (And Women).

Personally I like the colours, bit concerned my OCD couldn't cope with the crease in the "Beluga" sticker on the back of the bat though!

Also agree with the sentiments re price. I try to avoid telling people what to spend their money on!

Just a suggestion. Could the sticker on the back be in the b3 font (series, custom, etc.)? Also would B3LUGA be better?

He wasn't talking about the application of the stickers, he was talking about the amount of stickers, and the coverage on the bat they provide, which is very similar to a number of subcontinent Batmakers, whom tend to plaster as many stickers on the bat as they can

I must be the only one that has twigged on the Airbus reference with the big 'BELUGA' stickers? It tickled me a little I have to say, hope it was intentional.

Indeed I am and I'm afraid you have taken my comment out of context, it was meant as is and has been the way of many sub continent or Indian brands over the years to cover as much of the bat in stickers. With there logo or model as large as possible. If you have taken offence I apologise but you have taken in the wrong way

I still stand by my earlier post that this practice is not limited manufacturers from India or its neighbour(s). Apologies for posting a comment not connected to the original topic, just could not keep quiet.

If you look at the major producers from India, Pakistan and Australia and England and the bats that are actually made in the respective countries it would be fair to say that bats from the likes of CA and other sub continent brands have a higher percentage of willow covered by stickers than say a GM, is it a bad thing? no. End of the day beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

Not a fan of the shape, but the red stickers/grip combo look awesome!

Hey ursmasti. Some nice willow there! Did you cut down or push down the top of the grip on that second bat or is that how it came from B3?
