i too have a peradon cue, which i bout nearly 2 years ago and its deffo a very good cue. i bout the peradon king from a stockist in b'ham but what mr o said is very true you gotta try them out. i picked up 3 kings and they all were different until i tried the last one-was love at 1st sight lol. if you go to peradons web page and enter your details they e-mail you back the nearest stockist

I sent them an email to find out my nearest stockist and they said there were none! I want my cue to be right so at the end of the day im going to have to travel, but no idea where to

i think at times they can be hit and miss for ppl some love them and some hate them thats why u just need to go try one out for yourself

I purchased a new Peradon Hawk Pool cue recently and it was a very nice looking cue with excellent hand splices.

One thing that I didn't like was the balance of the cue which was around 13.5" from the butt end so I returned it.

I am fortunate that I live near Green Baize and tried a selection of cues they have there and ended up with King Excellence (Thialand made) as the balance and feel for me was just perfect.

I tried Master Cue, GBL among others and I find that the feel of the cue is most important and if it's a nice finish it's a bonus

Not sure if all Peradon cues are balanced very butt end heavy but you could always ask the retailer before you buy.

The cue I eventually purchased is around 17" balance point compared to 13.5" of the Peradon so you can imagine that they both feel very different albeit both beautiful to look at.

deffo have a good think about it, i spent nearly a year deciding what cue i wanted to buy but that was also dictated by the budget i had in mind. the cue i have i love but it may not suit you, try as many cues as possible to find the one that suits you.
good luck dude hope you find the one

I used to have a peredon royal and i can say it was a class cue for the price which i think you cant get no better, i sold it because it was to short for me and had one made to the same spec just 2" longer
