What Cue do you have?

[poolqjunkie]

JP made in the late 80's early 90's according to John--badge says "hand spliced"
57", 9.5mm, 29mm, 14" 3/4.
7 evenly spaced chevrons on the ash shaft which has turned into a golden color.
I LOVE this cue, made my first and only century with it.

Edit: made another one already.

I have played with several cues over the last 15 years or so...
burwat champion first edition.
john paris elite.
b&w mascot.
riley burwat.
but the last 9 month or so i just wanted somethin plain with no frills...
got on made from peradon cuewizard and it is just 1 peice maple shaft with hand spliced roeswood butt i think it is 16oz and 57in long and i am playing some of my best snooker with it !
within the first 2 months of playing with ih i had a 99 clearance an 116 clearance within 4 days of each other. so you could say i am happy with it.

Hi there, new to this forum
'89 JP custom being refinished /sd joint in butt and new upper/lower joints put in at JP now with lovely wooden cue case with bromley add.
According to JP it is the equivlent to a Paragon today. 3/4 ash with 4 chevrons up 3 down.. lovely shaft on solid blackest black ebony/maple ebony butt. 57 3/4" 18oz approx 8.5mm tip

current gamer
'03 Robert Osborne (b4 joined by Will Hunt or when Will had a bad back, I forget) machine spliced red plate with streaky ebony and 4 tulipwood splices like old burwat/trevs matthew stevens cue. Ipc initially with non bevelled osborne joint put in by Robert himself. Lovely ash shaft 8 chevrons evenly spaced and plays beautifully. SD in butt done at JP. 58" 17oz approx 9.8mm tip

both Elkmaster tipped although heavier JP has a thinner taper. Finding cueball control much easier on delicate shots with the lighter 17 oz Osborne.

Is a Thurston cue any good? i've had it years and was told it was very old when i got it (100 odd years he told me) and this was aroung 15 years ago he gave it me, i realise there may be many styles of Thurston cues but wondered if there worth anything, i would'nt consider selling it, i also have no idea how to post pictures either, i have tried some research to find if they are a good make or worth anything, but draw a blank, if someone knows a site or could give me a value etc i would be greatful, cheers, Scott:snooker:

I have had in the past , A hunt and obyrne , green badge , it was heavy and felt heavy , 21 oz . A barracuda Kirkham made to 58 , and barracuda champion made to 58 both about 18 0z . A Northwest cue again 58 ,10 mm , 19 0z . A parris special same 58 10mm , and a cheap one piece maple ,worth nothing , with tape round it and that cue was probably the best of the lot , which goes to prove the point if it aint broke .............
