    Rogi looks like you have yourself a great looking cue.I will also be interested to hear how it plays. On another note I had a tournament today so I took my new altered cue and won two matches then loosing in the semis to Floyd. I can't say I potted that great as I am still lacking confidence and as Terry mentioned today I need to punch through the cue ball. I am very tentative. My safety play was great which held me in the matches. Cue feels great. More practice.

    To be honest , that cue ( and the shaft ) Looks great .
    Any chance to let us know how the cue plays ? ( if u have time of crs ).

    Reminds me of when I was a hi-fi buff years ago. A shop did blind tests of the Linn and Roksan record players then stopped doing it as " the customers kept making the wrong choice".

    Good call Fred agreed a lot cheaper, would also be nice if someone did buy one and took it down their local club with a swapped badge to see the reaction they get off & on the greens.

    What I would love one day is for someone with a few quid to buy a JP ultimate cue rip the badge off it and stick a David Wu or another cheap make on, and stick it on this thread just to see how many people would actually reply.

    When I spoke to John Parris he said there is a longer waiting time for one piece cues as opposed to the three quarter Ultimates.

    Great looking cue Rogi, hope it plays as well as it looks!

    Well I can't tell what they actually are as I don't have any calipers tape measure or scales here, but it should be 58" 9.6 18.25oz or at least that's what I ordered

    It really feels good and somehow he was able to keep the weight the same. I will practice with it today and then we have a tournament tomorrow.
