Can anyone help me with info about this cue?
- Thread starter MaxiPool
- Start date
Looks like the Adam font to me also. Is that just a jump cue? It looks like it's missing a section.
Looks like a Snooker Cue. What is length when assembled ?
yes, I did search the interwebs.
Didn't find anything though. Thus me asking you guys.
It's a 58" cue. Pool cue, not snooker. 14mm tip.
Not missing a section.
Snooker cues come to mind, because it is not a 1:1 split. Snooker cues are built that way. Snooker cues also are around 58-60" long. A 14mm tip is definitely not for snooker, though.
I can only imagine that Adam try to build a pool cue with influence from snooker cues.
I googled "buffalo snooker cue" and found this

Obviously you didn't search hard enough, because I did this on my first try.
My guess is "Buffalo" is a cheap brand from the UK and your cue is a pool cue made with a 3/4 joint like a snooker cue.

We'll, i DID find a lot of buffalo snooker cues, but since that doesn't have anything to do with this cue I counted it as a failed search.
What I meant was that it haven't found any info about buffalo 3/4 pool cues from the 90-s looking like mine.
Price new was 1500 dollars.

You bought a cue for $1500 that you never knew a thing about? Or did someone tell you it was $1500 new?
I bought it new in the 90's, and i paid 1500 bucks.
Pool in Sweden was non existant back then, nobody knew anything about cues. In retrospect, I probably trusted the seller a teeny tiny bit to much, but I was 23 and had a lot of dough. Seemed like the right thing to do back then.

Well I found a catalog of the company. Their website is www.billiard-products.com.
I'm going to guess and say they are similar to cuestix international, with brands like Lucasi, Players, and Action.
Billiard Products has brands: Universal, Adam, Buffalo, Cuetec, Maxton, and Stinger.
Yeah found that as well. Only current production though.
Sent them an email with pics of my cue and asked if they know anything. Probably a long shot.
Thanks for helping!
I found this sight. The brand symbol looks to be identical. http://www.buffalo.nl/en/billiards/cues?p=2
You just broke the two most sacred cue collecting rules:
Rule #1: Don't pay $1500 for a $150 cue
Rule #2": If you break rule number 1, don't admit it on AZ Billiards!
Rule 3: Don't lie about what you really paid for the cue

Well guys, i Am guilty of #1 and #2.
Not sure of the purpose of calling me a liar, but I'm afraid I did pay that much for the cue 20 years ago.
To put things in perspective. The only pool cues sold in the south of Sweden where we played were house cues, dufferins and for the rich, MCDermotts.
In the late 90-s we got wind of Cuetec, Helmstetters, Hueblers and Prathers etc.
I'm sure the real pool players back then knew better, but we were kids still high on the Color of Money. Admittedly we knew very little about the game and the equipment.
