36 splices of Ebony and Maple on an ash shaft with the straightest grain you're likely to see on a cue.
Having visited Mastercraft in Shropshire, I asked for 'something different' and that's certainly what I got. I can't speak highly enough about Dave and Chris who have been amazing from start to finish, not only getting the cue finished on time (somewhat of a rarity when it comes to cue makers these days) but also at a great price and an amazing end result. Having purchased cues from various cue makers over the years, you won't find better service or value for money than Mastercraft and their cues aren't too shabby either
One thing's for sure lot's of skill, time & effort gone in to making that design........Last edited by CueAntW147; 19 November 2011, 02:38 PM.

Alternated each frame between Butters and Cook cue, i won 6-4 against a good player
I played better with the Butters cue even tho its lighter than i'm used to, but thats maybe because its taper is more like i'm used to, the Cook cue is a bit thicker because of the bigger ferrule, but the Cook cue just gives off an air of quality that i want to get used to. The Classic feels as tho its going to be a great player, but will have to wait to find out.
Think i'm starting to go too far, altho i know a lot of you are far worse !!!

Love Robins work though, as for weight alot of players use around 17.5oz so a lighter cue may suit you down the line.
You've not gone too far yet........along way to go, many of us are much worse your right.........lolLast edited by CueAntW147; 19 November 2011, 02:50 PM.

They just all look good to be honest. I wouldn't mind any of them!If you want to play the pink, but you're hampered by the red, you could always try to play the brown!

This cue is made for the owner of a snooker, pool and bowling business
Yellow and blue are the colors of his favorite soccer team
The yellow and blue splice form the letter "A" which represents the first letter of their business
Cue number one hundred was something special, so we chose the reverse splice and the splice with coccobolo.
His name and name of his only daughter placed with gold leaf
