SS Ton plain grade 1 review
« on: January 30, 2010, 11:31:33 PM »
SPEC

Plain
2lb 6oz without grip
9 straight grains

Got this bat as my net bat but after netting with it i thinking otherwise now
i got the bat and first thing that impressed me was the size of the bat for the weight very impressive so much so i took it to a leading batmaker in England to have a look at.

He was very impressed less so because i didn't get him to make me 1 but he asked how much i had paid for it and he agreed for the price i wouldn't get anywhere near the quality in england for a made bat.

overall it has a great pick-up and it plays well might challenge my Laver Pb for top dog this year.

i will post pictures in the morning

Sounds good fella some pictures would be nice and to be fair all the Indian and pakistani bats that are towards the top of the range that i have seen so far do seem to be super value for money.
I have a friend who has a top of the range SG coming from Inida next week so i will let you know what its like

Thats a lot of wood for 2.6 - many batmakers are not overly fond of making bats at this weight as it is diificult to make a big shape - but SS are getting a reputation of making some very fine bats - I'd love to know the moisture content of that bat to see if it has been dried to it's limits or whether it's just an exceptionally light cleft in the first place.

Regardless, great bat and again good service from asad by the sounds of it!

We have just received some more Plain bats from SS so if any one require one, plz email me what weight u require.
we have 2-3 more shipments coming from SS as well as BAS.
As usuall our guarantee on these products.
Just remember buying from an individual, u may be able to save few pounds but there is no after sale customer service

Regards

Asad
