Hi gang,

Unique Joss custom full-splice, gorgeous cocobolo handle into straight grain maple forearm, custom ring work in the butt. I acquired this cue brand new from a private party last year who had several of these made. I played hit it with a different 3rd party shaft on a home table for a few hours and then put it away, as a backup cue (my daily player is very similar Joss cue). I've accumulated too many cues, and just purging the collection a bit. Condition of the butt is brand new, 100%. I'm offering it with a lightly used Joss "High Performance Shaft " - Dan Jane's take on modern LD ( light weight dowel insert, threaded tenon & low mass ferrule). I have several of these custom Joss HP shafts and find them to be amazing. This shaft has 2 minor dings low on the base, easily repaired & totally out of the playing area, the tip, ferrule, and top part of the shaft is perfect, like new. See pictures. I can substitute a brand new Predator 314-3 shaft, or offer it as a second shaft for an extra $200.

Cue rolls perfect separate & together. It's an awesome player, super well balanced, very solid hit with a lot of feel.

Specs:
  • Total weight 19.3 - adjustable.
  • Length: 58" (29/29")
  • Balance point: 17.5" from buttcap
  • Butt: 15.4 oz, (with/1.0 oz weight bolt, adjustable), 1.26” @ the buttcap.
  • Joint: 5/16x14 SS threaded pin, piloted insert. Collar - white arvorin & black phenolic, .840" OD
  • Shaft #1: Joss HP, 29", 12.75 mm, 3.7 oz, 1/2" ferrule, 10" pro taper, linen fiber threads, brand new Ultraskin Ivory Soft layered tip.
$650 OBO. If you want only the butt, feel free to make offers. Paypal and most of the major e-pay apps accepted. Happy to answer any Q's in PM, etc. Thanks for looking.

This looks like a great deal and this would make a great pool league cue where the venue changes.
Don’t want to take your custom cue to the tavern or pool hall, here’s a great alternative to substitute.
 
I’ve been informed by an “expert” that the joint material may not be ivory, but rather a material called Arvorin. Personally, I’m not an expert and honestly don’t know or care - but not intending to mislead anyone, so I’ve modified the description. Cheers
 
If you call Joss and give them the serial # printed on the joint, 191480, I’ll bet they can tell you for sure if it’s ivory or imitation.
 
@slim123 - you’ve sent me a few PM’s but for some reason your messages are locked and I can’t reply to them. Just FYI

@ Bob Farr - yes, correct, I will call/email Joss/Dan Janes to get answer on the joint material and update this listing if/when I get any new info.

Thanks
