I have a J/B, don't like how it breaks, but it jumps well enough for me, so will keep carrying the jump part and using it as jumper.
So... I have been looking for a dedicate (2nd hand) break cue for a while, then this thought came up .... "I have extra shafts that I seldom use, why not just pick one to break with?"
This shaft I am thinking to change its role has Ivor-X ferrule, IIRC same material used by Zylr (not a Zylr shaft tho) and I believe the ferrule is capped and threaded on this shaft.
Not sure if it matters, this shaft is 3/8-10 and is very good quality maple (custom cue shaft). if I am going to break with it, I will then go buy a cheap 3/8-10 butt.
Is it a good idea, or not suggested? Looking for opinions, thanks for your inputs.
