Thank you. 18.5 is a nice weight.
Mine is 19.7oz, i measured on a kitchen scale. I thought that Mezz butts should weigh the same without the weight bolts..I guess now they are not.
Interestingly I couldn't get much draw action from the CB with this cue. maybe its my stroke but i was able consistently get more juice from the CB from another cue that weighs 18.8oz with lesser effort..
anyway enough of my mindless ramble, thanks for your reply and enjoy your new cue~!
Just ordered the regular hard maple shaft that is NOT of the LD type. I'll be heading to Owensboro probably in the next couple of weeks and I'll get Chad Carter to put a pressed Elkmaster tip on both my Mezz shafts. Then it will be a very nice cue, with that regular hard maple shaft vice the LD shaft.

Mine was supposed to be 19oz, but I weighed it at 18.4.
Two thumbs up for Mezz construction and wood selection. Very nice cue. I agree with others that the linen is slick. I was going to treat my ZZ32 with something like wax paper, as suggested in this post: https://forums.azbilliards.com/showthread.php?t=220594
I ended up returning it because I couldn't get used to the WX700 taper. I'm now considering an AXI with a HP2 or ExPro.
On another note, I returned my BK Rush for a Mezz Kai. So, at least I have one Mezz in my bag.

Hey guys, so I'm in between stay with Mezz ZZ-36 or upgrade to Schon STL9, they have a simillar wood base but the ZZ-36 has a cocobolo wood on it. I've never try Schon cue, some say the schon feel denser which I love for my playing cue. Is there any difference? And is it worth to upgrade? Thanks
Year and a half and I still got nothin.
Yes there is a difference, if you think it's better/same/worse would be up to you after you try it. There is no way to know what you will like based on what other people like. Hit feel depends on the tip and shaft as much as anything, and there are dozens of those you can try out as well, so the only true answer for you to pick what you may think is an "upgrade" is to test out 30 different things, other than that it's all a guess.
Retails at $790 and sale price at $790. It doesn’t sound like much of a sale. You might check the Mezzusa website. Sometimes they have sale prices below retail for certain discontinued models - some of which might be available with the same WX700 shaft.
I would strongly recommend upgrading to the WX900 12mm shaft, which has significantly less deflection than the WX700 but feels way more solid than any of the Predator Z series shafts.

That he says, also for Eric to comment on how nice their shaft wood was and hit means a ton! BTW thats is ( Sugartree Cues ) I have had two Mezz and they were great! Plan on another or an exceed one day, also have one plenty of their shafts. The cues hit well and are well constructed. Move the cue ball effortless. They are a stiffer hitting cue, witch I prefer, and have a nice tone one contact of the cue ball.
