Came across a bat I haven't swung yet and was wondering if anyone here on the board has any feedback? Any info would be greatly appreciated.

I'm pretty sure it was a model never actually released. As you can see it is a SB12 which means "Softball2012" and it isn't in the new 2013 catalog either. I doubt you will ever actually see one.

There is a niw 28oz listed on ebay right now. I have never seen one and that's why I'm asking. Seller says they are limited....... just dont want to try a bat if its going to be garbage.

Any Canadian Board Bros out there know anything about these? Seller is from Canada so I'm thinking maybe this is a Canadian Only TPS???

Louisville surprises this year with the arrival of Sonic Louisville. Made of composite LS-2X as the Z1000, the big difference is seen primarily in terms of design but also in its effect trampoline. Its 12-inch barrel demonstrates amazing flexibility that makes the ball explode the bat incredibly. A model for meeting the criteria of the ASA, quality strikes leak its full potential.

Flame rating of Sport:

Appearance: 8.8 / 10 Sweetspot: 9.2 / 10 trampoline effect (pop): 9,5 / 10 socket: 8.9 / 10 Sound: 9.2 / 10

Average: 9.12 / 10

Possibly one of the best ASA bats quality / price / performance in 2012. Louisville surprises this year with the arrival of Sonic Louisville.

Yes it's it. And yes ASA stamped. I ordered two. I should get them Thursday. I will let you know once I receive the bats. I want to make sure it's legit. Again I'll be the guinea pig. They're coming from Canada.

Kidcatty is not afraid of trying a turd, before we discovered SBF a few yrs ago he had a Miken Burn and a Sports Authority Mayhem all within about a month lol

I just ordered one myself. Guy said it was the same material/tech as the Z's. Can anyone say Next SB73V Voltage?

It looks like a 1 piece from the pics. I'm getting goose bumps thinking about a 1 piece Z!

I can't read/understand any of it. Lol.

I swung mine today and I am pretty impressed by it so far.
Hey Kidcatty, have you swung yours yet?
