The Bass BBCOR bat
A BBCOR bat made to be owned, not stocked
Every Bass bat is made in a limited run, in small numbers. When a release closes, it moves to the Archive.
A BBCOR bat has to meet the same standard as every other BBCOR bat. What a maker can add is how the bat is built, how few exist, and how it arrives. That is where Bass puts its effort.
RESURRECTION: the one-piece alloy BBCOR bat
RESURRECTION is built as a single piece of alloy from knob to end cap: no joint, no connection piece, no composite barrel to break in. One-piece construction is stiff and direct. Contact comes straight back through the handle, and an alloy bat is at full performance on the first swing.
It is a -3 BBCOR bat, certified BBCOR .50 for high school and collegiate play, with the 2 5/8 inch barrel the standard allows. It is made in one listed size. How BBCOR certification works explains the mark, and what one-piece and two-piece construction mean for feel.
Who RESURRECTION is for
- The hitter who plays where BBCOR is the rule. High school and college baseball require it, and so do many leagues that adopt high school rules.
- The hitter who already controls 32 inches. RESURRECTION comes in one length: if 32 is yours, it is your bat; if you need 31 or shorter, it is not, and BBCOR bat size will tell you before you spend.
- The hitter who wants one-piece feedback. A stiff, direct bat tells you everything about contact, mishits included. Some hitters want exactly that. If you want a more cushioned feel, a two-piece or composite bat is a different choice, and we say so plainly.
How it arrives
It arrives like something kept. A plain kraft box with the Bass mark stamped on the lid. The bat wrapped in brown burlap and tied at both ends with cord. A Bass hang tag, and a card naming the release.

Questions
- What is a BBCOR bat?
- A BBCOR bat is a non-wood baseball bat that has been certified to the BBCOR .50 standard, the one NFHS high school and NCAA college baseball require. It carries a permanent BBCOR .50 mark on the barrel, a barrel no wider than 2 5/8 inches, a length of 36 inches or less and a drop of no more than -3.
- What does -3 mean on a BBCOR bat?
- -3 is the drop: the length in inches less the weight in ounces, and the rules allow nothing lighter. A 32 inch BBCOR bat weighs 29 ounces or more, a 33 inch bat 30 ounces or more. With the drop fixed, the length decides the weight.
- What is a one-piece alloy BBCOR bat?
- A bat made as a single length of alloy from knob to end cap, with no separate handle. It is stiff and direct, with contact reported straight back through the handle, and an alloy bat is at full performance from the first swing, with no break-in. RESURRECTION is built this way.
- Is RESURRECTION legal for high school and college baseball?
- RESURRECTION is BBCOR .50 certified for high school and collegiate play. As with any bat, check your league's own bat rule, and confirm the model on the approved list before the season.
- Is a BBCOR bat allowed in youth baseball?
- It depends on the league. Youth divisions mostly use USA Baseball or USSSA marks; some 13-and-up divisions accept BBCOR and others require it. BBCOR bat size sets the leagues out by age.
- How do I order RESURRECTION?
- Open the RESURRECTION page, choose the size and add it to your cart. It ships to the US with free shipping.
