Thought I'd share some photos of my new Reg Wright cue which I've had for a month. I'm delighted with Reg's workmanship, cue has lovely balance and feel. I've already hit a couple of 60 breaks, which is about as good as it gets for me. Love the badge as well, nice and understated and cue has a silky smooth finish.( I asked Reg how he achieved this but it's his trade secret, he does a lot of cue maintenance work as players love the finish ). I was on a budget so went for a plain ebony butt. Total cost including 6" mini-butt and delivery to Northern Ireland was £270. (great value compared to the £120 I paid for a Peradon Lazer a few years ago). Wait time was 4 weeks and Reg was a pleasure to deal with, a real gent. The custom cue specs:
Length 57 inches, cue jointed at 16", butt length 23 inch, tip size 9.5mm, Plain Ebony butt, standard chamfer, 17 3/4 oz weight, butt diameter 29mm.
I saw 2 of his cues that he made for Marco Fu.......really quality splice work . It was spot on . Super feel to the cues as well .
Up there with the finish of a TW in my opinion .
Reg's splice work is excellent. Maybe if Fu changed to a Wright cue it would help him generate some extra power, although this weakness in his game may be more to do with timing. One of Reg's cues would definitely be easier on the eye than his current stick i.m.o
does yours have a phoenix laminated tip on it? it says that mine comes with one on it and I'm interested to hear what people think, I'm currently using an elk master
Yes it has mate, the one supplied with it was filed down considerably though and now it's starting to mushroom.
Due a change soon anyway Phoenix tips get some insane response from the cueball. They're great.
C Brand Workshop's supervisor has came up with his own private brand - The Scorpion - intended for his ready-made's in the future. So he puts his first badge on my own private order cue, finished and sent to me just hours ago (I placed this order in November last year). Long wait was from the Laos Burl butt wood). Absolute beauty !!
Nice cue, you will love it. I bought a C4 1 pc about a month ago and also have a C1 3/4 which I bought about a year ago. Stu is great to deal with. Enjoy.
