got a bargain for the amount of splices payed round about 310 for the case ,cue ,extension and the snakewood minibutt and the ebony minibutt nice chap threw in towel and pounch for free.the service i got was not the quickest , but they answered all my queries and were helpfull.I PAID The deposit on 16 th april so about a 100 days to wait.Cue plays amazing the shaft is superb.I would say that the level of craftsmanship would be better if not equal to a jp or a tw.

100 days so 3 months you will find thats very fast in the world of custom cues i have waited 10 months for a parris ultimate and nearly 6 months for my new robin cook cue should have it in my hands in 1/2 weeks. antwhere between 5/7 months is quite average for a good cue.

[ibrahim]

well then u can say that i am quite an impatient guy ...lol

[ibrahim]

well saying that a parris takes a year i would say tat the quality of the cue is right up the , all splices are almost even and it plays like a treat.

So are you going to tell us who made your new cue?
:snooker:

[perpetualboredom]

IT IS MADE BY A AND D BILLIARDS.

Small clue

[ibrahim]

As stated above it was made by A and D Billiards .

[ibrahim]

I thaught about a mw but 1 of my mates already had a cue made by a and d billliards so I opted for a and d plus they are also not that expensive with mw something like this would cost in excess of 1000 pounds
