This cue has travelled to quite a few places and finally here in China...
I've spent a good 3 days(and counting) with this cue and half the time was spent oogling at it's beauty.
Design and execution is top notch to say the least. The gorgeous grains in the wood speaks for itself and lends to the beauty of the entire layout. Gorgeousness i say!

Those who've tried can probably chime in, but for me this cue plays Outstanding. I haven't tried that many high end cues but i've tried a couple of custom cues myself and this cue plays at the top of the list.

Hit is firm but not stiff, extremely lively with flex and great feedback.
Jake's shafts are slightly longer than his butt which is unique in a very good way when playability is concern. I won't go too much into detail as hit is such a subjective subject to discuss and always ends up a controversy. For now let's just admire the beauty of this cue.

I'm with Marcus. Before I saw this cue, I had never heard of Jake. Whats his history?

This is one groundbreaking cue. I would love to see others that he made.
