I've got a friend of mine's MV1. It's a team bat and has probably 800+ hits on it. Just used it last night and was hot as usual. Today I noticed a rattling sound right around the sweet spot. It sounds like composite wires are loose and they make a pretty good sound. Can't help but be a bit nervous... Thoughts? Is she nearing her end? Thanks in advance... and yes I did search this for all you who sit here all day waiting to bash for reposts... :rolleyes:

Perfect! Thanks, I know that rattles can mean different things. Just seeing what others' experience has been.

It really sounds like a slinky in there... still I shouldn't worry? I guess we'll see how it hits now that I've noticed it

I wouldn't worry. Most Worths and Mikens I've used rattle after five hits. It's no problem at all.

Plus I've got the Fulk on the way!!! :D I'm just hoping it doesn't become the new team bat....

That Fulk has a rattle, but it was there before the wrapper even came off. It's def. nothing to worry about, especially on Worths. It's just endcap glue. You are going to love that bat, I had a 27 that was great but I traded it away when I knew I was getting that 26. Then I ended up not ever using the 26 but for one day.

What are you worried about? Do you still have warranty? I would continue to use as is without worry.

Yeah, like I said, we'll see how it hits. It may have been there before, just didn't notice it til last night. It's never been replaced but is coming up on its year mark... maybe I should hope it breaks?
