On a side note I've just seen that Its just cricket are now starring to sell Gunn and Moore bats.

They'd be pretty stupid not to, being right next to The Oval, and Ollie Pope and Rory Burns scoring so heavily and being picked by England.

Agree I sold my mythos as I just didn’t seem to like it compared to my Neons, I have since bought the Noir and Diamond which I love the feel of. Think it’s just that the Mythos was a thinner edge just felt small in my hands as my Neons are big bats as is the Noir with diamond in between the two

Should have just traded my Noir for another Mythos with yourself...  :D

I believe it's a discontinued model. So you should be able to 'pick up' one quite cheap.

@Alvaro  That info is only recently put on their site and exactly what I wrote. Point is this contradicts Cricket Merchant saying the Stokes and Vince are identical. GM refer to this as the "Phase 2" bat whereas retailers don't use this name. I would guess Cricket Merchant are the least accurate source but hot dang did the Stokes/ Vince bats they did the video on look good.

i think that was just his impression, that they looked identical, and in his video they pretty much look the same. he obviously didn't measure or compare their blade lengths, but the overall shape (and lack of "concavity") was the same.

From the pics of CM, Ben stokes seems to be using L555 bat. Pics are more revealing than a description on the site which could be wrong or even a copy-paste error from regular diamond description. Also from the way stokes is holding the bat in the middle, the handle seems regular handle size the way it appears below and above his gloves.

Stokes has got hands like shovels though. Big fella, great catcher.
