Glover V Stamford Cues

[kurtweston]

What are your opinions?? Which have you owned? Which is more valuable?? Honestly any information will be helpful!

Both of them are able to make fantastic cues.
My impression is that a Glover cue holds its value better than a Stamford.
But you will not go wrong with one of both.

never tried a glover, but stamford has not disappointed me till date.

I had cues from both of them and none of them was disappointing.
Tony Glover is famous for his very nice replica cues.

I have a Mannock replica by Tony Glover and its the best cue i have played with and i have played with alot!

[kurtweston]

what about the value of the cues?

[ChatLag]

Stamford has two product lines. The better one is quite expensive.

Tony Glover is somewhere between the two lines of Stamford depending of what you ask him to make.

A second hand Glover will fetch slightly more than a Stamford.
And his replica cues are sought after.

what about the quality. is that extra money worth the quality? ie. shaft selection and crafts skills.

That's exactly the price difference: Selection of wood and more craftsmanship. But playability is on equal level.

I popped in to Glover's workshop yesterday and he had a Mannock replica. It was beautiful - £500.

He also had another replica which I think was called "The Whisperer" which was also very nice.

i prefer stamford, i have tried nearly 30 cues from them, none of which made me disapointed, btw, paul and lewis are both very nice guys
