    Balabushka cues made in japan ! are they any good and worth the money ?

    It is the GB 8 - here is a link to good pics of the cue. I bought the cue used but it looked new. Sadly I still have not had time to play with it except maybe 10 shots. I have inspected it very well and it seems to be well made with good materials. Its very straight. The shaft is perfect (13mm?)...

    What is the definition of a "piloted (shaft) joint" ?

    I am not certain of the definition of a "piloted (shaft) joint" Doesn't that mean the shaft has the mini bulge protruding from the end like/similar to the one in the pic i provided? What do they call the flat faced shaft joint with only the "metal threaded insert"? ie: no bulge at the end

    Yes. The intersection was Rt 1 - Roosevelt Boulevard (a 12 lane road - NOT a typo !! ) - I DON'T think it (Boulevard Billiards + then ? Boulevard Social Club?) was ABOVE H&H. I think H&H was on the corner. I ate there 50 times (and lived 14yrs) plus more. Ya never know. The Doc Frye...
