I cant tell you price and model, but can tell you mid 90's by the phenolic joint.

I got a Joss from a pawn shop a few years back. I wanted to know more about it so I emailed Dan Janes and he answered quickly and told me the model and when it was built. Nice guy. I'd try that route. Also look to see if there are any markings on the joint or under the butt cap. Mine had a number that helped him identify it.

Sounds great, what is the email for Dan? I’ll have my friend take a look for numbers

I left my case at home. Borrowed that identical cue. If it's still straight you have an excellent cue. Wonderful hitting cue for hopefully not a lot of money. I should have bought one then. Much better feel of my Adams cue.

I don't think it's worth over $200, being generous, probably less.
The model number really doesn't matter at this point, and the limited deal doesn't help.

Spot on. Great hitting cue IF your into that era joint. Carry it around and not worry about banging it up.

I bought two similar butts one time both for $120, and by the time I bought two shafts I had more in them than they were worth.
Now every time I see any of those Joss cues I remember that the butts are worth less than the shafts.

The problem is they made thousands and thousands of cues every year, way more than you think.
Thousands made for specific dealers, found three model numbers from three distributors for a joss I had a couple years ago.
Real nice new four point joss , and I could not sell it for $300.
When you see that, you wonder how cheap the dealer cost is on these cues.

I was trying to remember the year I was so impressed. It was 1989. Had a new Mercedes on the road. The cue I borrowed was much lighter. Probably made in the mid 80s. Sorry for the misinformation. Gary South always brought a few down from Corner Pocket in Mountain City Tennessee. Funny how you remember minute things. I was using a David Howard Original. Fun times.

I told you to invest in Lucasi cues but no you didn't listen.
