Ask him about his cue innovations. He is known for that.

Oh, it's definitely getting played. He's making the shaft 12.25 with extended pro taper and super soft tip. This will be my new one pocket cue! (I'm an old school maple shaft guy)

No, I don't think they offer that anymore. That would have been cool.

My favorite hobby.

I was notified today from Debbie at JOSS that the cue is ready to ship and they were ready for payment. I happily paid the balance and asked for a photo of the final cue before shipping. I haven't heard anything back yet. I tell you what, JOSS does not mess around. They knocked this order out in...

I love this so much. More minutia, please. Can you share more about the MIZERAK/DOVE line?

Another beautiful cue!

That is a beautiful cue!

When I was an up and comer. Heck, I guess I'm still an up and comer. Anyway, when I was younger (that's better) decades ago, I used to play in a $50 a man Scotch Doubles 9 ball match up. (This was in Northern Virgina, Fast Eddies). Four of us of would play a set, then switch partners and play...

I really enjoyed this. Thanks for sharing.

Biado loves the Vantage shaft. I recently switched to it and I must say, I love it.

I was very fortunate to purchase an autographed Willie Mosconi print off the wall of Cue and Cushion in STL. The legendary Mark Wilson was there giving private instruction. We see each other often there, and he came over to offer that it had an interesting provenance - as it came directly from...

My Sigel Joss homage is almost done. Steve said he's aiming for next week. If I can't play straight pool as good as Sigel once I have it, at least I will look cool. Well...the cue will look cool.

Pretty cues!

........now I want a Gus....

This thread is turning into a great resource for all of the Joss fanatics.

I've heard that he was very well respected by fellow cuemakers, and was an extremely hard worker. I'm not sure I would call it the easy road. I think he just took a different road, that worked for him.

Supply and Demand my friend. If they sell, that is what the market dictates.

Dale Perry made fantastic cues that played really good! He did change his business model to a more mass produced, affordable cue - but a lot of players were able to buy a fine cue at a solid price. If I were smarter I would grabbed a few off of ebay when I had a chance.

That makes sense. He lives in Europe and found it there. It was not cheap.
