My new Mastercraft cue

[Dan27]

Ok i know it's not to be compared with the top cue makers like Mike and Trevor, but it's a massive step up for me from my painted BCE cue.

The specs are:
57" Length
29.5mm butt
9.5mm tip
18oz weight

Ordered it through ADR147+ and he was a pleasure to do business with.

Nice pick up.

Yes, the splices don't quite match up.

Nice looking cue mate, personally id probably go with a mastercraft if i was replacing my old peradon. but right now im too scared to change a winning formula as steve davis used to say.

Whats it like to play with versus your old one?
You notice any major differences?

[Dan27]

Only recieved it yesterday so not had a chance to play with it yet, and probably won't get a chance until this weekend.

But surely it's going to be better than a painted BCE with a varnished finish

looks very nice...! I am curious how you like it playing. my mastercraft cue is a treat! just yesterday my new telescopic extension came in from mastercraft.

[Dan27]

I'll be sure to let you know how it plays once i've got the free time to try it, (times like these are when i hate working nights).

My mastercraft cue

Received my Mastercraft black panther 1 pc before the weekend and it's marvellous to play with, done a 50+ break within the first 2 frames and considering 47 was previously my highest, i was well chuffed. (and no i didnt forget to leave the 1 out before 47

Excellent customer service, i would give them 11/10...Dave answered every question and query I had, sorted me out with a free MW tip and good discount on a 1pc aluminimum case and a free chalk pouch.

I would like to post pics but I have a crap mobile camera, i will using my webcam this week if i can.

Compared to Peradon, I had a pro-cue previously, I think mastercraft cue's are much better, the cue was less sticky, less in price, paid only £125 for this compared to £160 for my pro-cue about 12 months back. Got extra weight, as I like my cue heavy.

couldnt ask for better service, if your looking for good cue at good value and cant afford a MW or Ferris, then mastercraft is the place to go.

I know you're happy with your new cue, and that's all that matters (I'm not meaning to be negative), but I'm quite surprised that for a cue of that price they haven't lined the splices up properly? It doesn't seem like great craftmanship to me.

I agree fully, but i was assuming little things like that (ok it's quite a big thing i suppose) was the difference between paying these more budget end prices and paying an extra £100 or more for a Robin Cook or an extra few hundred more for a Mike Wooldridge or Trevor White.

Does anybody know why the splices aren't lined up ? I've not really got much knowledge on how cues are made.
