    I can’t imagine why anyone would use a construction bolt that doesn’t have a way to tighten it. Even the K-Mart specials Ive come...

    I wish my cue had that weight bolt. Honestly that weight bolt is closer to a certain era JW bolts than mine. I see similarities too...

    Curious, and I don’t know who made the cue, but at what point does a cue become a frankencue? Does any cue with a replaced buttcap...

    I appreciate the pic. Would you show the pilots and the pin? Is that a higher end Mizerack cue from the 80’s? I’m sure we have...

    Upon further inspection, there is another JWW on the other side of the buttcap. Pretty shoddy repair work.

    I’m pretty sure the logo/buttcap is from a repair. It has definitely been refinished. Whatever it is, it hits great, feels more refined...

    I know you have a very long history with cues and this forum and I respect your insight, though can you point me to a production cue...

    I agree too. I was doing more research and it looks like African olive wood.

    I haven’t really been on the forum much for a number of years and if I recall correctly, some of the old guard died or left and the new...

    I’m fully aware the logo is not like any joss or JW logo.

    I’m sure the buttcap has been replaced in its lifetime. I would imagine BITD average folks would have a local repair it vs shipping to...

    That’s what I am leaning towards. So far I have only found one 68-72 Joss that has the same pin and joint collar. Most of the them...

    Finally got it home. Played with it last night. Plays like a 70’s/80’s cue. Solid hit and it has that audible “ping”. Similar to an...
