Manufacture & Specifications
The ash is carefully selected for strength and straightness before the finest, genuine Ebony butt timber is spliced to the cue by hand and the cue is shaped to produce the distinctive four round point pattern of a hand spliced cue.
The Ebony front splice with distinctive Sycamore striped pattern is then hand spliced to the Ebony butt. In order to reduce stress to the timbers the cue is then shaped over a period of time until the final tapered shape is achieved, after which the numerous sanding and finishing processes are then undertaken to achieve a 'silk smooth' finish. The cue shaft is then stamped in the traditional manner with the cue weight to the nearest 1/2 oz.
To eliminate joint problems the two sections of the 'quick action' joint are each precision turned from a single piece of solid brass and precisely fitted 12" from the butt end to give the shaft length of 46".
The butt is finished with a Peradon Joe Davis 600 name plate and 'quick action' butt end joint to accept the optional extensions on the 'related products' section of this page.
This cue features a solid brass ferrule and 9 ½ to 10mm Elkmaster tip.
