@Cublingtoncc why not go custom and get the shape you want, weight you want, size you want, stickers you want and then get a copy as you will always need 2!

Agree as you are looking at top end get something made to your own specs as the cost will be about the same and you may get better willow than off the shelf.

I went up to B3 last week and can't recommend them highly enough - got to play with a load of different shapes which completely changed my perspective about what I wanted, chose my cleft (357 density!) and paid less than an off-the-shelf job.

GN Custom is an expensive way to get the same thing in my opinion.  That said, I haven't got my bat yet so I hope it'll be OK....

Look at the B3 section on this site (at the top), or go on their website @ www.B3cricket.com

They are based in Hucknall, near Nottingham.  Took me 3 hours to get there last week but well worth it to get to play with all of the pro bats...

@Cublingtoncc no need to go top end GM or NB in less you want to. I have mid range bats from both these brands from sponsors like @Uzi Sports and @Vitas Cricket just ask them if those are the two brands or profiles you want.

If you want custom either B3  or RedInk make quality customs and in addition never hear a bad word said about H4L either so worlds your oyster on here

I would also recommend to go for Custom especially with the amount of money you will be spending on top range bats, you should get something of your own liking. I personally would go for B3 myself. I have had good experience with them. I have 3 B3 bats including a crown.
