Duc!

I'll take the one that's named after the most rarest of ALL substances in the UNIVERSE...UNICUM! HAHAHAHA!

Chris, So is this 1 of....? since its a prototype? Also curious to how much it was? Great looking putter...just get rid of all that writing on the bottom and just leave the blue kanji. Simple & clean. Just the way we all like irons AND putters!

SOLD....pending payment

My buddy says he used a glass bead blaster. He said sand blasting might give it a rougher/different finish depending on the grit of sand and the softness of the material being blasted. Oh, he also told me that the Yamaha head had some of the best paint he' s ever seen! The glass beads didn't do much at 1st...he had to soak the paint in solvent/remover to soften it for the beads.

Sandblasting might give it a rougher look. My friend has a bead blaster I guess you would call it. I think it uses glass beads. I'll ask him tmr exactly what he used.

Sorry Ian, couldn't tell ya. Was trying to find that info for my post last night.

I have for sale a Yamaha V201 Tour model 9 degree driver head. It has been blasted of all it's paint...so now it's basically "naked" bare as you can see. Asking $150 net shipping to North America obo. Elsewhere please enquire about rates. Last picture is what it looked liked before.

Great pics. You need to show more of what the blade looks like from the back. GLWS.

Quite an art getting the proper grind...knowing when to stop...and not grind off too much! Made me cringe when he's bending the hosel back and forth to get the proper loft! Doesn't that fatigue the metal?

Hi Nob, Can't seem to send you a PM. PM me pls.

Your 1st two pics make that driver look like a hybrid! The last looks like a driver that's on steroids!

No...you'd just be a Ho! Haha...Akin to trading in your Ferrari for a Lambo!

Agreed wholeheartedly Ian!! Personal 1 is too busy and 2 is too simple! No character at all in the new design. Personally, don't like the direction of Epon Design at moment....pun intended.

Who u got ur eyes on?

Awesome set! Great pictures...detailed and crisp. That's how to sell...lots of SHARP pics and great description. GLWS!

Just dipping my toes into the JDM market. Gonna play this head as is to get a feel for Jap drivers. Actually have an eye towards another head but want to see differences compared to US drivers first. Will report back on how it plays/wears etc. Just bloody waiting for the friggin snow/cold to stop!! Actually more jazzed about my rebuilt Epon AF tours!!

Got this head from another member off BST.... Was just gonna shaft it up and play it this summer since I've never played a JDM driver before. Then was thinking...maybe should refinish it since it's a little scuffed up. Maybe a matte grey paint so I can be cool like everyone else! Asked the shop that was rebuilding my Epon irons and found out that it was gonna be more than the head cost me! Then decided to ask one of my co-workers who has a bead blaster to remove all the paint and see how much the bodyshop I know would charge. My buddy had to use aircraft paint remover to get the paint off before the bead material would even scratch it. He told me that it was the best powder coat paint he's ever seen (JDM quality for ya). Even before I got it back I knew that it would look good devoid of any paint...so I've decided to play it naked! Just surprised that the face is also grey like the rest of the body. Thought that the face was the natural titanium finish. Anybody know if blasting the finish off the face will affect play?

WOW!! Spectacular....photos...hahaa. What kind of camera you using T? 50 mega pixel??!!

Looking for a 3 iron to complete my set. Prefer head only but will take shafted one.

any pics of the yammy v201?

Super interesting stuff! Tario, just wondering if you could showcase the different finishes available either thru Buchi or when a TSG member gets their clubs built? Would love to see the finished products. Want to see a few sets before making the jump! Thanks.

What year is the Yamaha head and what is the size in cc?

Tario, Stupid question but what do you mean by squaring the toe more? Can you show an iron with the shape you want vs. the Buchi?

Chris, Do you know if the MT-201 is an original head design? The reason I ask is that I've always liked the "retro" blade model from Miura (http://www.miuragolf.com/shop_blade.asp) and both these designs look very similar?
