I looked at LizardLick's site and found a Sanwa Joystick Adaptor, looks like what you describe, they fit on a U360 to allow use of bat tops?  Yup.  The skinny stick really doesn't really bother me either.

I too am curious about how they would feel on a U360.  They sure would look nice, but I'm worried since my U360 seems sensitive to spring stiffness for re centering and it says right on that site that you may need a stiffer spring.  (I prefer the light spring in my U360.)

i'm definitely sticking with the sanwa sticks, i asked my wife's opinion and even though she likes the looks of the bubble tops, she prefers the feel of the bat tops.  so i think i'm just going to stick with black bat tops.  i will need to buy two JLWs, but i'm tempted to get the TM version with the thinner shaft, i can use the thread adapters to install the bat tops on them, but that way if i change my mind later, i can switch to ball tops.

do you think it will look stupid to have players 1 and 2 with thicker shafts than players 3 and 4?  i could buy two more jlw-tm-8 sticks and install their thinner shafts into my u360s and make them all match, but i dont know if it is worth the extra $40

while i'm on the subject, even though i will have the u360s installed, i think i still want a dedicated restricted 4way stick as well, which will be a ball top JLW.  since the 4 bat tops  will be black, should i make the 4 way a black ball top?  i plan on having 3 buttons next to this stick which will be green, should i get a green ball top for this stick? or just make them all black?

Yes, that's exactly what they do. The U360 is a Sanwa stick.

Hahaha. That was a test. It was close, but you passed.
