Thank you for your time.

Any opinions on Mezz Cues
- Thread starter greeneyes_ocean
- Start date
i played with a mezz for about 3 years. no complaints the cue hit good and took couple of stressful hits and stayed straight and still hit good. i still have my heart set on a mezz ta-3
They play like a schon but with a softer hit. The hit is also super solid. If you get one with the metal joint it is only a thin metal sleeve wrapped around wood similar to a schuler.

I don't think you will regret buying one. I have owned three. Do allow youself to explore it for a while once you get it.
They are very well built and good player cue.
The high end Mezz cue are name Exceed. You might want to check that out. Put on with a medium moori and it ping nicely.
Im still looking for one Exceed EXD model. EXD is a dual core cue unlike mine which is quadro core and it play real stiff and control is excellent. Dual core play just nice, like some SW cue.
They have standard shaft, Hybrid pro and hybrid pro 2 shaft for you to choose from.
Hybrid pro is somewhere between a 314 and a standard shaft.Hybrid pro2 is something like a 314 but allow you to draw back sharper or narrower.
I play with a standard shaft and it make nice sound to my ear.
Most mezz comes with UJ joint which is a 5/16-14. and it is tight when you screw and unscrew it.
My cue comes with a Wavy joint. It is something between a radial 3/8-8 and a 3/8-10.
Mezz also comes with an extension which can be very helpful at time.
I hope this help.
good stuff
tried 3 of the new series 2 weeks ago .. and was very impressed...
the new hybrid shafts can do some pretty incredible stuff.. way ahead of the predators, in my opinion.... ( and i do own a predator )
if you go for one of the higher end ones, you will not be disappointed ...
their break cue is another story.... too damn short for my liking...

I haven't tried one yet. But I seen Efren Reyes jumping with one during the WPC 2007.
Im happy with my Fisher jump cue. If I do get a chance to try one and if it is good i might go for it.

yeah that's what i had on my mezz. they make a predator shaft that matches with the mezz perfectly. they even have a line of cues that come with the 314 standard
hi
I bought MEZZ model EC-N with standard shaft and with "old style" joint, not metal one.
Its very good cue, well made and with very good hit. I never used Schon but its way better playing cue than Viking, McDermott and Joss (these are the ones my teammates are using and this is my opinion).
If there is complaint that would be that they can not go lower than 18.5oz (I like 18oz).
I got mine for around $280 with tax included.

Taken from somebody that used to buy custom cues from the states and sell them here in Japan. I no longer sell custom cues anymore because they just don't sell as well anymore. One of the reasons the Japanese custom cue market has slowed down (not stopped) is because the great quality that Mezz and Adam are putting out these days. The Mezz Exceed series, and the Adam Musashi line are made as well as/or better than many well known custom cue makers. The only thing that stopped me from buying a Mezz Exceed was that because they are not a custom cue, there was always a chance that I'd run into someone with exactly the same cue I have............................and that's unacceptable!!!
