I'm sure he will, after that result. .

Makes the snake / ebony / maple badged one I bought seem like even more of a bargain now ( if I still had it. LOL ).

the slices don't look centered with the ash, and thats unusual for james

after another look it looks 5mm out, maybe a fake

I don't know what it is but there is mark in the snakewood just to the left of the tip of the ebony facing splice. Could be tear out??

i can't really see that but, to not splice the center of the ash is like being plastered before you board the slow boat

When I asked him if he was doing any more badged ones he told me he wasn't, then the very next day this one went on? Does anyone know if he makes them from scratch or does he buy them in half done as he seems to make a hell of a lot of cues for a hobbyist?

It's been taken off by the looks of it

[j6uk]

this cue wouldn't get past the first stage even for a hobbyist, so it seems a bit fake like

Yep Joolsbrorunner is James Butters ebay account ,this will be 100% genuine.
If the arrows don't run true, would you not have to line your splices up with the top ones, otherwise when you put the flat on and get down on the cue it would look all out of whack?
