[jonnyhumbucker]

Hi all. Was just looking for a bit of feedback before i buy myself a new cue. Have heard nothing but good reports about gbl cues, are they any good?

[Gerry Armstrong]

Yes, they are excellent cues and Stu is an absolute gent to deal with.

Very good cues indeed, i don't think you will find better in same price range.

The range is standard in the sense that you cannot get a custom made to your taste but the range is still quiet comprehensive to satisfy most tastes and as for the quality of materials used i could not find a single fault with the two I have and the splicing is second to none. So it really comes down to trying out the cue and if you like them then they are keepers in my opinion as you wont find better money aside.

Cheers sanman, the good news is custom made cues to order will soon be an option !
I've also got a new GBL website being made this summer :-)

Take care

Great news that Stu. Never heard a bad thing about you or your cues, the designs of the current range aren't to my taste so the fact you're going to be taking custom orders soon is great news for me and many others I'm sure.

This should be good. GBL is already the best way to buy a ready made cue online IMO. Great range, great pictures and detail on specs, and you can ask questions about how the cue feels and plays etc. Custom is great, but I love being able to buy something that's already there and ready to send.

Cheers...
