I got to shoot a few balls with one tonight... I let him shoot my McDermott, he let me shoot with his Meucci...
#1 great looking cue... purple heart with ebony
#2 decent hit though I still prefer the McD , the owner even complimented the hit of the McD.
#3, the glaze on the wrap WTF is up with that? are they all glazed like that?
it had a linen wrap but was varnished and sealed like the rest of the butt. Is this the way they all are?
To me that defeats the purpose of having a linen wrap. I use linen to absorb moisture and provide a stable grip... I understand that others prefer a smooth grip... but if thats what you want... why get linen?? get leather or no wrap at all..
He claimed it was an $800- $1000 cue... but the workmanship was not even close to my McD. and my McD cost $500.
Is he full of it? or am I just not seeing the point?
The Cue looked great but played and felt much worse than I expected.

over the wrap... alot of players liked the linen look but the wrapless feel .
