eBay John Parris 3 piece

[burwat292596]

59" in lenght, 8.9mm ferrule & 30mm butt, 21 0/z with balance point @17.5" (.5" below the joint). It is a fairly old cue, say 15 yrs or so - been on to Parris but they cant date same, only that they made a few cues for the chap named on the disc - Tony Kelso. No SD, telescopic extension goes in the shaft after the butt comes off.
I have not used the cue for 15 months or so, having bought a Peradon Custom from Harv on TSF - with which I am exceptionally happy, conquered the yips - ftb.

Asking £250 plus postage.

I can't get the pics to post, so if interested pls pm your email and I will send them direct.

Tks, Ian

WOW.. the joint is so high up!
What is the length of the butt?

Is it ash or maple?

[burwat292596]

Cue is ash, joint @ 18 inches, will measure to top of the splices tonight....

Cue

:snooker:Hi Ian, If i was to cut the cue down to a 9.5 mil tip! How long would
the cue be "approx" ? And could you send me some pics?
Thanks .:snooker:

[burwat292596]

Hi gorvagh

I reckon 1.25 inches will have to go to achieve 9.5 tip, more or less depending on mushroom or slim fit.
Pls pm your email and I will forward pics.

Tks
Ian

Hi all,

Just received the cue from Tony Glover and he has done a great job for the JP cue. Had wanted to get John Parris to do it but decided otherwise due to previous bad experiences.

Currently
57", 9.5mm, 18oz & 29.5mm butt
Balance at 17" from butt

Will upload the pics later.

A preview by those who have Facebook acc.

I had emailed John Parris and he told me the cue is a "Ultimate" so i have it change to a JPU.
I m buying it for my own usage but if i were to sell, i can sell it with the original disc.

Well you know when the Beastie Boys came on the scene and everybody was nicking VW badges, he out at the local snooker club lifting badges off cues!

With the new badge you will then see this £250 cue on ebay with a £1000 Buy It Now tag. Easy money

I have the badge customize by a cue maker.
Anyway, if i indeed wanna make money out of this cue, i wouldnt have announce it to everyone here but instead put it up for sale and tag it for "£1000 Buy It Now"
