It's pretty cool, and pretty easy: Just follow the steps to create your very own customized DeMarini bat. You create it. We build it!
The Navigation System
The blocks at the top of your screen will highlight to let you know where you are in the design process. There are 4 core steps to building your bat. It starts by selecting your model, and then it's time to Customize and Personalize leading you to the promise land, Review and Buy.
The Design Module
When you design your bat you will use the Design Module located on the right side of the page. The module will give you thousands — maybe even millions — of options to make your bat perfectly you. When using the module you will notice that there are 4 core areas of the bat for you to add your personal touch: Barrel, Handle, Grip, and End Cap/Knob. Within each area you will have multiple elements to customize. You can move from area to area. No need to complete one before moving on to the next. Areas with a red circle are incomplete while those with a yellow checkmark are done and ready to go. You can move on to the Personalize step once you've completed every option.
Bat Images & Angles
Not only do the images of your bat show you how awesome your bat is going to look with each selection you make, you can also use the buttons on the left side of the screen to see different angles to ensure your masterpiece is perfect.
Color Palette
Time to have some fun! When coloring your bat you will have the option to select any color from the provided palette. During each step the Design Module will automatically provide you with the available color palette for that specific piece and once you select a color it will contain a checkmark and be highlighted to the right of the piece you colored. If you want to change a color all you have to do is click on the specific piece and select a new color. You can always go back to each step to change colors at any time!
Inspiration
Should you ever need a little inspiration to get the creative juices flowing, simply scroll down the page to see a variety of different designs for your specific bat. Just remember, if you select one of these designs, it will automatically be moved into the core design space and remove any options you have previously selected. If you select a bat as inspiration — you are not stuck to only these options. You can go in and make any changes you want.
This step allows you to really make your bat your own by adding your name, number, etc. (up to 16 characters). You even have the option to add an icon or country flag that is special to you. Boom! Before you started, you will need to select your bat length/oz. Length/Oz. options available are the same options available for the In Line model of the bat you customized.
End Cap
It starts with your End Cap. You either add text, number (9 characters is the max) or a Flag/Icon. Once you select an option you can color it and if it's text or a number, you get to select the font style. It doesn't get much more personal than this! And remember that DeMarini has the right to review and reject any and all profanity, so keep it clean!
Knob
Once you're done personalizing your End Cap, it's time to personalize the Knob. For your Knob there are two spaces where you can personalize. Each space is dedicated to text or numbers and it basically cuts the Knob in half. The top space will provide a maximum of 9 characters while the lower space will provide a maximum of 4 characters. In both areas you will be able to select the font style and color of the text. And similar to the End Cap, keep it clean so grandma would be proud.
Review Your Bat
When you are done with your masterpiece and ready to share or buy it, click the "Review and Buy" button. All steps must be complete for the button to be clickable. It will turn black and yellow when available.
Importance of double-checking
On the REVIEW & BUY screen, you will have a chance to review your design to make sure everything looks just like you want and all the information is correct. This is very important because as a custom bat it is non-returnable and non-refundable. DOUBLE CHECK TO MAKE SURE ALL INFORMATION IS CORRECT.
Making changes
If you want to make a correction or change things up, just click any one of the grey boxes with the pencil in it and you will go back to that exact step where you can modify your bat. Get your bat perfect before you order it because it cannot be returned. After that, we're already bringing your vision to life.
Sharing your masterpiece
You're an artist. A visionary. Show your friends what you just created and reveal to them your true genius! You can share your bat on Facebook, Twitter or send it to all of your family and friends via email by clicking the appropriate icon. This is also a great way to send someone a "hint" on what to buy you for the holidays or your birthday, or just because you're awesome.
Printing your bat spec
Click "View Full Bat Spec" to view and print the specs for your bat. If you want something to hang up to remind you of what's coming, you can refer to this sheet when the right time comes. This will include all of your color choices, your personalization choices and even the images of your bat!
