John Parris Classic authenticity

[hoknavla]

Hi all

I have owned this JP Classic for 7-8 years and I feel it's time for an upgrade.

I have posted my cue on sale recently and been getting queries on its authenticity. Very valid questions, I would have those doubts myself. However, it is most often only my word at best as I have misplaced the receipt after shifting.

I would like to put the pictures up here for you blokes to give an independent review of the cue's authenticity. Hopefully this will help any potential buyers make a more informed decision. Honest and objective views are most welcome.

Cheers

Pointless showing pics of the shaft, that doesn't tell you anything, better off taking the cue apart and showing the joint close up, badge looks ok to me, is this cue for sale somewhere?

the badge looks ok to me as well, joint photos would be good as mentioned.
yes, where is the cue for sale?
where did you purchase it for in the first place?

Looks fine. You will get questions because EZ has started up the genuine or fake JP thread! Even when things are pukka folk are so cynical now (because of all the badged fakes) that they doubt the genuine cues as well. It's sad but the fakers have ruined the market I'm afraid.
