    replied
    Hi guys. Sorry for the late reply to your kind words in posts.
    I'd like to thank all for their patience with me in waiting for their Cues as unfortunately the joints have taken way to long in the making of them but as you all probably know there's nothing worse in waiting on other's.
    The Signature Cue is my top of the range cue. The shaft will have your chevrons,new joint and badge also certificated.
    With regards to the new Signature joint of mine I did design it back in 93. It's a 3 part joint with a spigot and a rebate in the flange for strength also made from aircraft aluminium for lightness to keep the natural forward balance of the cue. The Signature joint has a unique number to each joint.
    I see someone has mensioned that its the same as mike woodridges f1 joint, i can asure you its not. i can see why you say this as its engraved but its 2mm wider for the font to be bold.
    Most cue makers number their badges so I thought I'd be different as I don't like to see a cluttered badge. I've design a new signature badge, there are a choice of two Black and white. On my standard Cues I'm going back to my black Wright cues badge as it replicates my logo. I may even do a white one.
    With regards to the butt of the Signature Cue it's the choice of the customer to keep it personal.
    I'd like to thank neil suckling as he as been an absolute diamond. He made the prototype joint for me and also my badges. His workmanship is top notch.

    I would like to put pictures on here but but I'm struggling with doing that I'm sure ill figure out how to do it one day. Lol

    Oh just one other thing my email is playing up and some are going to junk. My hosting company are useless. If you don't get a reply please do call me. Tbh I prefer you do as it's sorts thing out much quicker.

    Keep focused and keep your elbow high

    Regards Reg

    Parris charges £320 for a classic and robert charges £300 for a plain ebony red plate. I'd say if the cue matches craftsmanship and playability i'd say its worth it.

    If the cue excels and the craftsmanship is lets say the same as an osborne green plate, then id say its a bargain haha.

    I don't really know, i guess id have to see his cues individually and think if its worth the price.

    the cue you have, i guess it was priced at £540 as was seen in his workshop. Osborne has his green plates starting at £500. do you think the craftsmanship or selection of shaft is on par with an osborne black plate for example. if it is then i think at the price its a bargain.

    difficult one though tbh as reg isnt as known as other cue makers i suppose.
    Excellent post , the thing with Robert is that you can't order a cue from him . Unless you go to his shop and he has one that he wants to sell .

    Just to add that £320 for a Parris classic only applies to 3/4, a 1pc as discussed earlier is a different realm completely in terms of cost. Not sure how much Osborne's pricing is affected by jointing if at all.

    Hmm, think i'll take that with a pinch of salt. Not incredibly believable considering the f1 joint has been out a while and this looks very much like it and has only recently surfaced.
