The listing does state Country/Region of Manufacture is Japan
Definitely made in China. I have the sticker to prove it lol.
The only cues still made in Japan are the Musashi and some custom billiard cues
There are places like NewArt that have Musashi cues in stock. I've been told that ADAM is not taking custom orders currently.Aren't these one in the same? Musashi are custom made-to-order. They produce cored billiard and carom cues as well as snooker cues.
Outside of Exceed, Musashi are the predominant big brand of Japan. Their carom cues are popular in South Korea and it seems many are sold there.
