    At the moment, it's just the way collector's like it. IMHO

    If it was like this one however, then a sympathetic restoration could do it good.

    Hang on to your hat J6uk, I've done some measurements in work today.

    Splices are 17.5"
    Balance point at 17.25"
    Cue length is 58.25"

    dia at lengths as follows :-

    ( starting at butt, obv )

    0" = 32.9mm
    3" = 31.8mm
    6" = 30.7mm
    9" = 30.1mm
    12" = 29.1mm
    15" = 28.3mm
    17.5" ( top of splices ) = 27.2mm
    18" = 26.9mm
    21" = 24.8mm
    24" = 23.3mm
    27" = 22.2mm
    30" = 20.8mm
    33" = 19.3mm
    36" = 17.5mm
    39" = 15.9mm
    42" = 14.7mm
    45" = 14.0mm
    48" = 13.3mm
    51" = 12.7mm
    54" = 12.0mm
    57" = 11.6mm
    58.25" = 11.6mm

    Hope this info is of use. .

    Not hit anything with it yet, but the shoulder dia is huge. It's a chunky thing to be sure.

'B D' sounds fine though. Great finish, a lot of time polishing? Looks like the Aurora finish, as great anyway. The name plate looks great too, something different to little round badges that look plasticky and samey. The plate gives the cue a luxury finish.
    Thanks Cannonball.
