I have an interview between Jonathon Ross and Ronnie on a compilation dvd, in which Wossie asks about the importance of the cue to snooker players.
Ronnie says that the cues that are made today are all fairly similar, unlike the old ones that are very different from each other, that the bloke who makes his cues knows exactly what he wants in a cue, that he can get a new one within weeks of making that call, that he can be making centuries after a couple of frames with it.
He never once mentioned the splices, what decorative wood he likes on the butt, the colour or design of the badge, how many chevrons he wants.
This is what the collectors are seeking, not the players. The players want something they can play the game with and John Parris provides that for many of the top pros, and for you as well at a premium.

I am just a bit disappointed that he let this slip through, if that's what happened.

I mentioned this in my previous posts !!! nobody hates paris. JP makes some great cues. No doubt !!!
anyway, according to some people here, you only pay for the ultimate shaft and not the ultimate cue !! and it is oky, if you're not a collector !!!.
I think it will be easier for JP if he opens a new section on his website, ( with these questions) you know !!
As a customer you should report (before you place an order): Are you a player?? or are you a collector?? do you think in the near future become a collector?? (For example, by accident, you lose your leg or arm, can'nt play anymore and become a collector)
that makes it easier for JP associated dealing with these splits. !!!
