what make is it?
got a link?

[Neil Taperell]

Have a guess Dean ..........i can't believe that it would have been sent to a customer like that . And this is in no way bashing the Cue Maker . Who does obviously make very good cues . Just find it strange .

[stejohn]

that's a JPU
What do i win??

[Neil Taperell]

I don't want to put the link up Dean......unfair to the seller .

You bored as well???? Nothing on the TV .....Searching Ebay as well

Spot on Sir...........Cuddly Toy on it's way .

[stejohn]

The sellers pointed it out in the listing so don't think it matters too much..

Saw it earlier and thought pretty much holy sh*& that's quite far out even for a JP

[Neil Taperell]

That's exactly what i thought ........also don't like the fact that it has been mucked about with ....i.e not original .

Doesn't take anything away from the cue , just my personal opinion .

At least the seller is spot on with his description of the cue .

Parris cues are terrible for this sort of thing in my opinion, and on an Ultimate cue it is un-forgivable, should be classed as a sin bin cue but price is still sky high !!!!

Shouldn't be out at all
Trev, Mike, Glover etc etc seem to manage it ok, and are a lot cheaper (well maybe not Mike lol)

Splices not too far out !

seen other cues with poor splicing but they all seem to have been alterations by JP (like this one); where unaltered ones appear to be better
as said if others can get alignment right why can't JP?

All kidding aside, the cue is about the shaft and the strike. I wonder how many world titles have been won by cues with even splicing.

[Neil Taperell]

Loads i shouldn't wonder . We know that it is all about playability , but i personally like even splices if i am paying that sort of money for a cue .
