I have already had four maximum 147 breaks with the cue.........three on the kitchen table and one over the sofa!!

Won't get a chance to try it out properly until tomorrow, can't wait!! Think I may sleep with it tonight instead of the wife!

One thing is for sure that you won't find a better piece of ash then this.
I admire your passion for the cues.
It's good that this would be your playing cue rather then a collector's item for shelf.
All the best with your new and hopefully the last cue.
I am very eager to know how the cue plays.
Let us know about it after you had some frames with it.

Its just my estimate that Oldgit might have paid something around that region.

You may need some oiling as it hasn't been used for years.

I would be scared to death of something happening to the cue with it being so expensive!

Wouldnt ever go toilet without someone guarding it lol.

Something that 'Cueman' told me this morning about Ronnie using the cue for 9 years has been niggling me all day and I have just realised why!! In 2003 John Parris made me an Ultimate cue and the number was around 775. My Ronnie O'Sullivan cue is Ultimate number 805 which means that Ronnie only started using this cue in either late 2003 or early 2004 so Ronnie only won one world championship with this cue and used it for about three years.
I also remember chatting to John Parris back in 2003 and he told me that Ronnie was forever tinkering with his cue specs and an example that John told me was that he had to remake the butt of Ronnies cue twice because Ronnie wanted to experiment with holding the cue with the badge facing out rather than up!!

i think i can safely say mike now holds the record for most money spent on a snooker cue.

Lets just get it out there. How much did the cue cost??

[jrc750]

Well i think if you can afford it then why not ? Got a lot of history behind it, and you did say you negotiated the price down, so hopefully you did as well as you could there lol
