H4L 666 - 5 Star
« on: January 16, 2011, 07:24:27 AM »
Just received my new H4L 666 and on first impression - im well pleased. I really liked the 666 profile when i initially saw it and decided to take matt up on his forum offer.

I asked him for a 5 star, 8 -10 grains, 2.8-2.9, with a slightly thicker oval handle. I received exactly what i've asked for - probably more 2.9 ( i dont have a scale, but picks up fine). I haven't played with the bat yet - so i cant comment on that - however, the quality and the finishing really are top notch.

Service - matt was terrific to deal with. Replied to all messages in a timely manner. Posted the bat exactly when he said he would. I got the bat within 4 days in Canada (that is record time). This is also the first H4L in Canada.

I will update this thread once i use the bat - in the mean time, enjoy the pics.

Looks a beauty.  I have 2 H4L bats here and agree that both the product and customer service from Matt at H4L is top notch.

Superb photos of what is an awesome looking bat, it's a good size for a 2.9 considering it's got the thick spiral grip. I'm  a big fan of the H4L shapes and the stickers, look forward to seeing some of the Hattori's!
By the way - website seems to be down???

I've just bought a second hand H4L Excel. I have to say the finish is excellent & the handle is superb!
