the Raspery has the C/2 core right... so it should say "Buzzsaw C/2" instead of just "Buzzsaw/C" at the Buzzsaw logo as the Black Buzzsaw has "just" one nugget and the "C" core... not the C/2

....
right beans?

I'm not Beans but Grayson is 100% correct. The Black Rasp says "Buzzsaw/C2" while the Black says "Buzzsaw/C"

The other tell tale sign is the Buzzsaw/C has "RED" lettering and the Black Raspberry has "Purple" lettering.

I remember the OOB finish was a smooth light polish on the Pink and the Black was a 600/800 grit sanded finish even though the website says it was lightly polished.

They are both PK18 solids with the same core. All you would have to do is sand the Pink if you want to use it on true heavy stuff.

The Black Rasberry has a dull surface compared to the Black C/2.

Sir...
I have thrown several of all the C/2... Blueberry,pink and Black Rasp

Although they were the same cover and core combo. They were far different in my eyes. No matter how hard I tried I could never get the different balls to replicate the others. I think the color pigment might have had something to do with that. Just my opinion.. As much as I liked the Blueberry. I hated it compared to the other two.

Buzzsaw Crazy....
You are incorrect. The Black Buzzsaw/C and the Black Raspberry C/2 were both sanded NIB!!!

My blueberry is saving my tail right now! Having a timing issue right now and the control of the Blueberry is very welcomed.
