    Meucci Cue Identification

    Does anyone know what model of Meucci this might be? I've seen one with a two tone wrapped like this, but it appears to be original under the original cue finish. The original shaft is a black dot (small white circle in middle of it). I pulled the bumper and no numbers or label in there...

    Gus Szamboti's destroyed cue?

    From what I recall reading (or hearing at some point), Gus ran his first cue through a band saw when he saw it in the pool room years later. And some other cues after that which he wasn't happy with. But you never know!! That's a nice one and the mystery of the story definitely has some...

    Alex Brick

    I first met Alex back in the 90's when he came over to Jonesboro AR to play in the tournaments at Ron's Family Recreation Center. Alex was a great player and I came to know him quite well. I remember when he started making cues, I had one of his earliest sneakies, wish I still had it! Years...

    Meucci M-8 cue for sale

    Hi all, For sale is a Meucci cue, that I believe is an M-8. Cue is in overall around 80% condition or so, there are some dings and signs of use. The shaft collar looks stripped of most of the finish and the ferrule is scratched up some. Looks like an amateur put a Elkmaster tip on it so I'd...

    Which cue brand has won more tournaments in the history of pool?

    My guess would be Meucci as well. This is taking into consideration ALL tournaments from weekly tourneys in little pool halls and bars to national tourneys. As many have said, back in the 80s, early 90s, Meuccis were everywhere and all kinds of pros used them. As a result, any amateur who...

    Joss Cue - What do you think about them

    I myself have always thought Joss made a very nice cue. Always seemed well constructed, very nice quality. But for some reason they just have never appealed to me that much. I'm not sure if it's something aesthetic or what, but I've just never owned a Joss that I really loved and I've had...

    Runout on mid-size Cuesmith lathe

    I bored the jaws on my Deluxe once or twice back in the day, it seemed to help. Chris told me how to set up and do it using a bearing or something similar to clamp the back of the jaws on. Also, cigarette rolling papers make good cheap shims when necessary. The tap the jaw trick that Kim...

    Lathe recommendations wanted

    You can't go wrong with a Hightower lathe (Cuesmith). I've been considering getting back into some repairs and what not myself and I've been eyeballing the micro or the midsize. I've owned two of his Deluxe models before with good results. He has packages available for them that will...
