lol or you could say a 1 piece converted to a 2 piece by Ronnie himself

He uses a JP traditional but with ultimate splices does he not?? Sorry i get so confused with what he does and does not use.

Roger Lee used to exhibit that cue (and glass case and set of balls etc) in th Heritage Room at the Crucible each year, until they decided to use the room for corporate hospitality instead.

The thing I was amazed at was how short it is.

ROS and Mark Williams both use Parris.

ROS and Mark Williams both use Parris.

Yes, now they do, but what did they use when they won their world titles? Williams used his Barracuda and ROS used a Burroughes & Watts Champion then he went on to Parris' cues.

oh I know this Kieth...These two could win things with broom handles.

I thought I read Williams won a world with a machined o'min?

Is that just nonsense?

I believe Cliff used a Dufferin Trophy cue, or was it an adam--perhaps Noel can confirm?

parrot's cue

i might be very wrong here, but i've heard that John played with a peradon cue

I think Thorburns was an Adam, am sure it's in his book, I'll check. Forgot about this thread.

it was - i could fill in a lot of this but can't be bothered!

[poolqjunkie]

Yes, Thorburn had an Adam in his book, just checked. Believe he won his championship titles and his 147 with an Adam as well.

pretty sure mark williams still has the same cue but has had the butt slightly reworked from a machine spliced into a hand spliced, he said it looked nicer lol

parris done the work and then stuck one of his badges on i think. similar thing with mathew stevens, i think he had an omin, parris did some work on, now it's a parris lol.
