    Sounds like a 1980's cue. I had one in the early 80's and it played very well.

      I realised it was prob made in the 80's..

      I've had it for years and years but forgot all about it, i dug it out last night from deep under my stairs, I've never even hit a ball with it. i forgot i had it, i don't even remember where it come from...

      It looks quite a well made cue.

      I'm gonna go and have a little knock about with it in a bit, see what it's like....

                      Hi, Not worth much really and not worth me selling it i don't suppose.
                      I use it now and then and it is a nice playing cue, bit short tho, it's about 56-56 1/2"...

                      It's a very well made cue tbh, not like the usual signature cues, all the splices are spot on, the ebony is jet black etc etc..

                      It's such a good cue i was even thinking of having it overhauled, spruced up and refinished...

                      How much you thinking it's worth to you anyway?.....

                        This cue is from around 1981. There was a two piece machine spliced version of the cue at the time as well. I remember seeing the two piece version for sale in a sports shop in Bolton for £50 in 1981.

                          Hi Cally, I was hoping for it to be around 57.5 - 58" and 10mm, but I'm still interested. I will offer you £30 + £12 postage...cheers...Potter

                            LMAO...:snooker:..

                            NAh don't think so, it's a cracking little cue, i'd rather chop it up for firewood than sell it for a measly 30 quid thanks...

                              How much if you stripped off the varnish and oiled and polished it properly?
