Is it possible get 63" ebony factory cue with no wrap? Schon, Viking, Predator, Meucci and other brands known in the rest of the world.
Thank u
 
In a factory cue I doubt it, but in a custom yes. Paul Dayton will make you a gorgeous ebony sneaky, 63" long, with a Hoppe ring for about $450, and it'll play like Genghis Khan. Highly recommended. www.daytoncues.com

I also know that there's some gorgeous ebony with a few cuemakers from this forum. It comes from Martin at www.westerncue.com Why not contact him and see which makers have it...Tom
 
I would spend 500$ with shipping to Lithuania.

Tpdtom,
I looking for cue look like Steave Davis pool cue.
Is anyone see something similar on web?
I would love to see some pictures.
 
Maybe ask Jerry Powers of Jerich cues. Or Bill Dominiak since he's doing lower end stuff these days. Although I'd agree with the Paul Dayton thought, he's good. Just depends on your price range and if you want it cored or heavy as hell........
 
I know a guy in Denver that might be able to help you out with that one.
In fact he's probably already reading this.....
Good luck!
 
I want 20 oz in weight...

But can be thiner (i use to with "Russian pyramide" cue)

Aball,
schmelke on web have no contact info! Any ideas how to contact them?

63" is a lot of wood to maneuver around the table, I know lots of tall pool players in Denver. Showcase Billiards made a 63" cue for a friend of mine, several people have 60" cues, and some players use extra long shafts. I am starting to think that a 58" cue is the ideal length

Cuephoric is dead right. For example, I got a cocobolo sneaky not long ago from a famous cuemaker. The cue was GORGEOUS ! He didn't core the cue though, and in my opinion it was very butt heavy. Ebony is heavier than cocobolo. Paul Dayton always cores these woods, and long experience has taught him to achieve the desired weight, which can also be a problem. I actually have an Ebony "Hoppe" sneaky at 59" coming from Paul in about one month. With one premium shaft with an ivory ferrule, cored, and with an ivory alternative Rambow ring, it's running me about $450. I love Paul's shaft taper, and his cues play great, so I know that I'll be happy. You would be too !

In the USA, the normal cue length for a custom cue is 58", but 57",59", and even 60" are not all that uncommon. I personally believe that taller players should play with longer cues more often than you see here, but they don't seem to. I know that Paul will make these lengths without an extra charge, and he has that extra nice Nigerian Ebony right now. He also ships overseas. As I said, his cues play extra well, and I heartily recommend him...Tom

Many Woods are too heavy to use the way they are. When a cuemaker cores the piece, he drills out the center of the wood, say ebony, and replaces the core with a lighter wood like purpleheart. The piece looks like solid ebony but it isn't.

I gotta ask why on Earth wood you need a cue that long? No matter how tall you are the table is still only 9 feet long.

A custom cue maker would have to reengineer his entire building process to go that long.

Thank u Andy

U see here we play Russian Pyramide with realy heavy and long cues
So to switch between the games with no stress we r need kind of similar cues.
I am 6'6' and playing in kind of snooker stance...
So with short cue i coming short on long draw shots!
Yes, sometimes i play with teenagers with my jump cue and win!
Now my Mcdermott is 60" and its to short for me.

Look at Phillipino players....if the cue bumper on the floor, cue tip reach they forehead! If the tip will reach my forhead its will be at list 66"...
More of the shaft u can move from the brige, more aim control u have....
I've read this in the books...

Corect me if i wrong.
