          Ok. If I am not mistaken JP does not work on cues from other brands. Was this customisation done when they accepted cues from other brands?

            Yep, in the good old days before the silly prices. I use to have a old plain ebony butt cue that was extended with that badge.

              Yes the advert says done back in 2008, so £225 was even more money then !!
              Even if it included tapering the cue plus new ferrule etc it's still double or even triple what you should be paying

                It wouldn’t of cost £225 back in 2008.

                  When did JP stop repair/ customisations of cues from other brands?
