Hi all, i wanted to share the experience i had visiting greenbaize today. As i have mentioned on a few threads i was looking for a new 1 piece snooker cue. Based on advice i recieved from local players and this forum i decided greenbaize were the people to contact for my new cue. One important factor in this decision was the fact i could actually try the cues there.
I arrived there this morning after a 2.5hr drive and after a chat with Stuart about what i was looking for interms of spec and playability i was soon trying out 10 - 15 cues all with similar tip sizes, weights, lengths to what i was looking for. The cues were a mix of maxmus, GBL and a couple of Niche's. All to be honest were fantastic cues with essentially perfect splicing and finish. After about 3 to 4 hrs (and a cup of coffee) i had narrowed it down to two a maxmus ultimate and a GBL special. Both incredible cues with nothing really to split the two other than me very slightly prefering the splicing design on the maximus so that was what i went for in the end. I cannot praise the service/advice/help i recieved enough and would recommend a visit to Greenbaize to anyone before they order a custom made cue, even if it means spending a whole day driving, its still worth it. In the end i know the cue in my car suits me and i dont have to wait months/years for one that may or may not suit me when it eventually arrives.
Hope this helps anyone looking for a cue!
