Here you can see the main joint of the cue and the insert on the shaft.

The forearm is stained purpleheart with a white joint and a black phenolic ring that matches the shaft of the cue.

The different woods are clearly illustrated in this picture. The forearm is stained purpleheart and the handle is stained mahogany. The white phenolic rings in this pic are where the cue breaks down for jumping.

The butt section of the cue is featured here along with the white ringwork displayed throughout the butt. The high quality finish is evident in this pic.

This is the exact same pic as the last, except a flash was used to highlight the grain of the woods. You can also clearly see the shock absorber at the end of the butt.

A view of the exclusive tip used on all X-Break cues, the shock absorber, and the pin that makes up the main joint.

You can see from this view both joints and the insert on the shaft. This view really shows one of the exclusive features of X-Break technology done by Samsara where all of the cues are cored with hard rock maple to help prevent warpage.

This is a great view of the one-of-a-kind X-Break tip. It is 18,000 PSI harder than any phenolic; yet still holds chalk extremely well, especially in comparison to phenolics.

Another view of the tip and male side of the main joint.

If you haven’t tried an X-Break with these tips, I highly recommend you do.

This is an extreme close-up with flash of the shaft insert.

The versatility of the X-Break is displayed here. This is a pic of the union between the shaft and the lower butt section. I prefer jumping without the forearm for specialty shots such as jump-draw or jumps with lots of English.

I ABSOLUTELY RECOMMEND THESE 347s...I have #2 of 20 and I just love it. I get a ball on the break 90% of the time, and my B&R % has increased. It's also so easy to park the cueball in the middle of the table. The finish and fit is excellent, and I really like the balance of the cue. Neither butt nor shaft is too thick and it feels really good in my hands. It jumps very accurately too!
Pick one up today, you won't regret it!

I can say, (as a person that USED to have a whimpy break), that this cue will improve your break!! I am amazed by it every single time I use it. Hurry and buy one now before they're all gone!!:eek: :D
