I have a friend who does excellent repair work with all of the equipment. I can furnish the tip and he charges me 10 bucks. Perfect work and a no brainer for me.

The butt may have been a Cuetec but the shaft probably wasn’t.

That's great. Pre-internet I was not as fortunate selling some of my production cues. Very small market at the time.

I got into customs because it was hard to get my money out of production cues. All customs are not built the same. There are cue makers whose name will hold value, increase in value, and cue makers whose reputation (or lack of) is such that their cues will not retain value. Like most...

No, and that was my point. Most people in their teens, through 30’s are busy with school, starting careers and families, etc. Discretionary income is tight. It sure was for me.

A quality custom cue by a top tier builder will never lose value. One just needs to have the discretionary income to afford it. I certainly didn’t have that ability in my teens, 20’s and 30’s. Which is where most of the production market resides. The good stuff is still in demand.

When I’m buying a cue I always want to know the butt weight, shaft(s) weight and diameter, especially if I’m spending a few thousand . I don’t think that’s too much to ask.

Beautiful. I’ve always been a big fan of Joel’s work. You have some seriously nice cues!

His piloted ivory joint has always been one of my favorites. Beautiful cue!

That’s a beauty!

Enjoyed doing business with you!

I recently purchased a beautiful Tascarella from Kenney and the process with him was excellent. We corresponded by phone and text, Kenny was very responsive with additional photos and videos, the cue was exactly as described, he shipped on time and the packaging was very well done. Next time...

Beautiful cue. His piloted Ivory joints are sweet.

A great guy.
