I own a JD as a player right now, I have for a year now. It is the best playing cue I have ever owned and I have had many, including Phillipi, Rauenzahn, and other customs. I would bounce from cue to cue, some a little longer then others but this cue is the right one for me. I changed the tip to a Kamui black, had the shaft tapered to my preference and I would not dream of selling my cue even if you paid me double.
I am playing the best pool of my life with this cue. I do sell cues but not JD cues, these are way under priced! I had Joel build me another one that should be delivered soon as my buddy was interested in one. When Joel catches on I hope his prices go up because they are certainly worth it, I think for him to do that he needs to create some original designs, his craftsmanship and playability are great though.
