Treadway, Diveney are good options. 2 years or so I believe, much smaller time frame than many others.
Best Custom Cuemakers?
- Thread starter THam
- Start date
Amen. It's not like people are calling to get on the list then just sitting by the phone waiting. Anyone who gets on that list knows what's up.
My opinion on Tascarella is he isnt the cheapest, but he is fair priced and delivers a great product without any bull$hit you have to deal with many other cuemakers. He is really top notch.
Bob Owen has really stepped up his game, but I dont know his wait time.
The other one IMO, is Rick Howard. Probably the most underpriced and incredible cuemaker. I have owned many, many of his cues and he far exceeds my expectations every time. He is without a doubt worth talking to.

Rick Howard, very true.
I think some of them get on the list just so they can brag about being on the list!
Check out Iraggi custom cues on Facebook. He’s doing some real innovative stuff. Cues hit real good also. He’s got a hybrid wood into carbon fiber shaft that plays good.
Surprised no one said Josey cues. Great customer service along with great playing cues

Me also.
Yea bragging about being on a 15 year waitlist is very very impressive
At my age (75) it would be!

I wouldn't be surprised
Rick Howard, Joey Bautista, Larry Vigus, Bob Dzuricky this ALL are great to deal with.

My Nitti plays fantastic, as do they all. I've already told Chris that I'm going to be buried with mine.
I think Chris's wait time is pushing two years right now, but worth it. I'd absolutely pick up the phone and give him a call. He'll answer the phone.
Another good option would be David Elliot. Chris's stepson and protégé who is beginning to make a bit of a name for himself. As you might imagine, his cues strongly reflect Chris's influence and play very, very similarly.
As I generally tell people, it's like getting a Netti in half the time, and half the price.

I think Chris Stopped taking orders .......I am not 100 percent sure but I heard that not to long ago. I have gone back and forth about getting rid of my nitti but I havent been able to decide lol
He has a few new cues available on facebook.
I know that but that's not what I meant lol I know he's making cues but no longer taking orders just building what he wants now and if you like it you buy it lol can't say that's 100 percent truth just what was told to me.
I hadn't heard that.
I know someone who just had a complete custom delivered about six months ago, but that's not to say things haven't changed.
I need to run down and see him to have him match a ring on a new tsunami shaft that I have one of these days and I'll ask him then.
