Help finding a cue

[snakedriver]

Hey guys

I'm new round here as you can see. Just getting back into the game after 10 years away from it.

I'm after a better cue and am trying to find a long taper one (like jimmy white used to use) I can't see/find any on ebay. I'm looking to spend up to 100 for a second hand one. Any help/links would be appreciated. Also, views/comments on the Barracuda tournament cue - i'm thinking of one of these as an alternative as there's a few on ebay at the moment.

Cheers!

Thanks for your help.

The cue i'm after is thicker near the tip end and tapers just an inch or two before the tip rather than a gradual taper all the way down the shaft. They were around 10-15 years ago. Jimmy white made them popular i believe. I'm after a good quality second hand one or possiblby new one although i'm not sure they are made any more.

Yes, that's the shape - i tried one out back in the day and really liked it hence i'm trying to track a nice one down

Well the barracuda is a modern chinese made cue so it will not be what you are looking for.
