Is it common for Schon cues to have warped forearms?

Justin,

Roll the handle again on a flat surface with the joint overhanging the edge, not touching the surface. If it rolls flat, the joint tenon has warped and most likely can be fixed if you desire.

My experience is that if a shaft is straight, minor warps in the handle do not affect play. Schons tend to stay straight, but I have had a couple that warped in the handle area myself.

Hey Jason, I am curious what you mean by BS? What exactly is BS about this thread or others? You do not know me, and you do not know what you are talking about. Just because you may have read my threads does not mean that you know me, so how can you know that a lot of my threads are BS? To be honest, I just post about stuff that is on my mind (at the time that I post it), and in my mind, none of it is BS.
 
Your thread started with the question: "Is it common for Schon cues to have warped forearms?"
The answer to that question is not only no, but hell no. In the twenty years that I've been playing with Schon cues I've never owned one with a warped forearm, shaft, or butt, and furthermore, I've never seen a warped Schon owned by anyone else.
Schon cues are arguably the very best cues made anywhere. Their reputation is spotless.
If, and I say if hypothetically, Schon were to turn out a cue that was not straight they would remedy the problem immediately. And, whoever said the cue in question may have been left in a hot car ought to have their head examined.
Next time, pose the question where an indictment of the cue maker isn't presumed right off the get-go.
In addition, Brian's (KC) reply pretty much sums things up.

^^^^^^^ I have had my Schon since 2003. It was built in 1993. I leave it in the car year round and it is perfectly straight.

No need to "pump up" Schon to answer the basic question at hand.

For which major long-time successful US cue maker are warped forearms common?

Easy: None.

I already said that I wish I had noted the title of my thread and post differently, but by the time I realized how foolish my posting was, it was too late to edit anything. Again, I am really very sorry.

No need to apologize. My comments were made for all of us. :)
 
I have a Schon, comes loose all thre time, warped bad, always stored correctly. This one is the Black Widow, the one I had stolen was an stl18- stored in a damp cold basement in its case, but accidentally left out a couple of times, always rolled perfect. Was a big Schon fan. called and emailed both Seyberts and Schon, just a reply from Schon, she said she didn't think it could be fixed. I will post vid, bad roll forearm only, real bad fop fop fop with shaft. not happy Bob, not happy.
 
I would hope not. I would say I would doubt they would still be in business if they did but then Meucci is still around lol

It is wood and nobody can tell wood which way to go.

Sad but true.
