I picked up a Gold Crown a few weeks back and had some trouble finding replacement cushions that would fit properly. After reading through this forum and not truely understanding the issue with replacing Monarch Superspeed cushions I decided to call Glen (RealKingCobra) and he recommended that I talk to SDBilliards as he is local here in Southern California.
I paid the table mechanic that moved the table, but asked him to go ahead and leave it dissambled so I could have Donny finish the table.
I did just that and I couldn't be happier. I was nervous as he wanted to pick up the rails and bring them back in about 3 weeks and finish the table. Having been around pool for a number of years I figured 3 weeks was going to turn into 3 months.
I gave him the benefit of the doubt and didn't call to follow up until it got closer to 3 weeks and sure enough, he was ready to deliver and we scheduled a time.
I honestly figured I was going to get a call about an hour after the agreed upon time and he'd either be flaking or really really late. But nope, he showed up on time and had everything that he needed.
I played on the table last night and it's the best table I've ever played on and I couldn't be any happier. The level of work is top notch and the table plays fantastic. The subrails were extended to tighten the pockets and I think they are the perfect size at about 4.5". Very fair, but still tough enough to require a little effort to pocket balls.
He "recalibrated" the rails and installed Artemis Intercontinental K66 rails with new Simonis 860 cloth and it sure does play spot on.
