Re: Check out this Bench "Gamer" Wow..just wow
I'm not a vintage bat collector - maybe you could educate me. I think I can spot a few things - and I am assuming this is a store model bat (?)...
But I really have no idea what to look for. Thanks.Dave

Store model with the "JB3" or "JB4" obviously sanded down.

I'd like to know how a company that considers itself experts can give the bat a model number when none exists. And yes, that knob has had some work done to it.

So many things are wrong with this bat. It calls it a R43C - C designates cupped on the end.. Uh...the bats not cupped.
Bench NEVER ordered a 37 oz bat. Ever. Just horrible.

Re: Check out this Bench "Gamer" Wow..just wow
Thanks for the info. I was presented with a Bench 'gamer' to sell for a charity auction last year...the bat was signed but apparently that's all that was legit with it.
It had JB4 on the knob - and since this knob has been doctored, it makes more sense to me. Thanks for the help guys.Dave

I'm wondering if the Ebay seller is also the "authenticator." This type of "authentication" goes to show you how far someone will go to make a buck off of something fake.

Their "logo" is a basic format you find on microsoft word. Shows how cheap they are
