frazz, you obviously have a lovely personal nature but its not as simple as that, mate. If a consumer is parting with his hard earnt cash then he/she should get what they thought they ordered. 2 variants must be very transparent in the cue making world now, that being, "Custom Made" and "Handmade", the custom one being cheaper obviously.JP Majestic

Pretty sad state of affairs I think, and whats even worse is that crispian is actually getting his hands on other makers cues and stripping them down! No wonder Andy is annoyed!

We have a thing here in Australia called 'truth in advertising' and that is NOT what has been going on. I'm sorry to say but Andy and ALL other cue makers should be willing to absolutely prove their innocence in all this even if they have only been implicated by the actions of a few other cue suppliers that are certainly involved in this. The whole industry needs to be willing to be transparent and the blame lies with no one but the frauds who have brought the rest of the industry into disrepute.

At least, unlike many makers who have clearly seen posts but have been shying away from the matter, Jason has admitted that he has done it with 8 cues. Jason hand makes all the other cues and perhaps it was wrong to badge up the 8, but, he's not making a great deal on every cue he does handmake compared to what others are making on cues they are still badging as customised. Jason's work is top notch IMO and he still HANDMAKES a great cue. Please feel free to shoot me down in flames."You have to play the game like it means nothing, when in fact it means everything to you" Steve Davis.

Doesn't effect playability though .
