• L555 Blade: Traditional 555 mm blade length paired with a 295 mm handle provides GM's standard adult configuration and a familiar, balanced feel.
• Mid Swell Profile: Centrally positioned swell creates a versatile hitting zone suited to all-round stroke-makers playing confidently off both the front and back foot.
• Traditional Full Profile: A substantial full blade shape and flowing contoured spine provide plenty of willow through the hitting zone while maintaining excellent overall balance.
• F4.5 Face & Powerarc Bow: GM's F4.5 face profile combines with the Powerarc bow and Face Dynamics expertise to optimise the Diamond's hitting surface and blade performance.

About GM 808 Grade English Willow

• Made from seasoned Grade 2 English Willow, providing a step up in willow selection within GM's English Willow range.
• Typically selected for a cleaner appearance and stronger grain structure than GM's lower grades, although natural variation between individual bats should be expected.
• Natural colour, markings and grain variations can still occur and do not necessarily indicate how an individual bat will perform.
• Each cleft is individually assessed by GM for characteristics including grain structure, weight, colour and cosmetic markings before being assigned its grade.
• Made in England using GM's extensive bat-making expertise.
