Break shaft with two types of wood, who can make this?

I play with Mezz cues and shafts. I have 2 Mezz break shafts, Deep Impact Pro H and R
The H has the massaranduba core (stiff!) and the R has the ash core (springy)
I have another break cue with a purpleheart shaft, wich i think is awesome for break and jump cues.
I`ve been contemplating for quite some time now, to have a custom shaft made, that combines the Mezz technology, but I want the core wood to be purpleheart.
This is the shafts I`m talking about: http://www.miki-mezz.com/en/products/shafts/detail.php?game=pool&cate=shafts&series=deepimpactpro&kinds=breakcue

Would anyone here be interested in trying to make a shaft like this for me?
I can give you all the specs about the taper, diameter etc.
 
You might ask Mezz to run a 'one-of' for you. They are obviously already setup to do shaft coring.
Not many of us are. Royce might be someone else to talk to.

I have already aired that idea in the Mezz shaft thread, and I know representatives from Mezz USA has seen that thread.
But Mezz is a big company and one-off`s isn`t really their thing.
I`m hoping a custom cue maker would be interested in giving this experiment a go.
 
I'd like to see some sort of scientific explanation for the claim of "more power, and more energy being stored in the shaft, and released into the cue ball".

I'm no scientist. But the density/hardness of the wood, shaft taper, ferrule and tip, will affect the cueball. Breaking with a stiff tapered shaft vs. a long pro taper feels very different etc.
