  • Leave it alone chaps, don't see why this should all be spewed up again - Jason's made changes to his marketing and website accordingly, I see no reason for people to dwell.

      No dwelling, I was trying to say that Jason has made those excellent changes, for the sake of clarity,
      and so it would be nice to see his work as it nears completion , on the site again.

      That's what this thread was started for after all.

        • Does anyone in the North west of England own one of Jason's cues?
          I should really like to order one but have a personal policy of try before buy.
          Any help would be appreciated!

            You wouldn't be able to assess much about a cue you want to order new, by having a hit with someone else's Jason Owen cue.

            I'm sure you know all this already, but obviously every shaft will play different, and every different spec for the cue makes it unique.


            Mine was number 070, and he's up in the high hundreds by now, so even the finish method and quality has probably changed since mine.

            • I personnaly have #144 and I can tell you the finish is the best I have ever had. Cue plays extremely well and wood selection is excellent. You can order a cue from Jason eyes closed, trust me. He's a bit underestimated IMHO.

                I would be able to access as much info as required. Eg quality of material, hit and feel. Pictures on the internet can't provide this.
                ----
                I've had many custom pool cues built but only having used one prior.
                This should be my first custom built snooker cue and I'm a believer that the cue chooses the player not the other way around.

                That said, quality always shines and I've read great things about JO cues, which is why I'd like to use one first.
                I except that any cue built for myself would be like no other, hence "custom built".

                If I had the money to buy a Ferrari, I'd still want a test drive.
                Call me daft but that's the way I like to do it

                  A wise question all buyers should ask all cue makers to answer in writing. The position is then legally binding under the Trades Descriptions Act 1968 I have been informed. That's not causing trouble (before anyone says it is), just verifying origin of goods and knowing your rights as a consumer and making a purchase based on an informed position. If they refuse to answer or blank you; well, silence contains information.

                  • Just taken delivery of my Jason Owen Cue.
                    It's brilliant. Feels just right, quality finish, I can highly recommend him.
