I think brand recognition is a major problem. U.S. made makers aren't as well know as Predator and the like from what I've seen in the various leagues I'm in. The average APA banger doesn't know about good U.S. made production cues, let alone customs. Now, add in that designs from companies...

If you look at Seybert's, few cues have veneers at all. I'd guess that using CNC for inlays is much easier for production makers than doing a half or full splice, both in materials availability and production time. I'd be curious if the big manufacturers can even get quality veneers in the...

Considering the shaft is $370 by itself, the price doesn't seem that bad. Plus, there is an off the shelf extension. It isn't great or quick release, but it exists. That said, I don't know why McDermott isn't putting the Engage bumper on all of their cues these days.

That's happened at least once.

If you find JB cases too tight, you can order them looser if you get one custom made. He confirmed that in a live chat a while back. Plus, I like them a lot. I have 5 JB 4x8s and I'm considering getting another custom built. As for break cues, a J&J is inexpensive and breaks well...

He makes great JPs. I've ordered a couple sets from him.

What's your location?

And if it doesn't, a cue maker or repair person can bore out a couple of the top threads in a shaft insert to make it fit. I've had to do that in the past to put a Revo on a Viking quick release.

To be fair, I was wondering if I was missing out on some weird joint like 3/8-12 and had to look into it.

Dang it, I was going to make that joke.

That thread pattern is actually a thing.

I have several of each of those pins except the 5/16x14 flat face. I primarily shoot with 3/8x10.

I agree with trob, it's worth the money. I chalk every shot, but I can chalk at the beginning of a rack and get through it without chalking again if I had to. The only 2 times I've had to replace my Kamui Roku in the last 5ish years is when I lost the dang thing. I had about 18 months on the...

Sounds like it. I'll see him in a couple weeks and see if I can confirm.

I've seen a couple of Richard Black's cues like those up close in Gilmore's shop. Video does it no justice.

Can't really tell from your one picture, but it seems like something that a refinish from Proficient would fix right up.
