Good cue makers and prices

[Gavo]

Hi, i was just thinking into the future abit as ive only just stared playing again. But what good cue makers are there out there, and what sort of price would you be expecting to pat for say a 3/4 cue? Only roughly as i know everyones needs are different.

£30-£1000 you get what you pay for!

As ADR147 says, its a very wide spread of prices, maybe you can state your own price limit then people will be able to advise you the way to go

I havent thought about a price really yet. I wouldnt consider a hand made one until i know i was comitted to playing it regularly. ( i kind of find it hard to stick to one thing.) But if i was then i would want to spend say a max of £200 at the current moment.

well these are the cues...... recommended by forum members(except JP),

This is the bit ime interested in - is this referring to the classic & ambassador series (which are nearer £300 anyway !) as ive just recently bought a 15 year old classic and its superb - just interested to know why some of you seem to dislike them - thanks
