Lomax j/b vs. Lomax Jump cues

[thefonz]

Looking for some input from those whom have owned both. I have a Lomax three piece jump cue, it's fantastic. Does the jump break perform just as well?

I have a Lomax J/B and it breaks and jumps great, but I do believe he uses a different taper on the J/B's, so it's not a pure jump taper.

With the dedicated jump cues it seems it's just a bit easier to get the ball in the air, and the jump extension is a life saver as well, so if you already have a jumper, you probably wouldn't want to switch to a J/B.

I first had a Lomax Break/Jump and I loved it. It broke great and jumped decently.

I sold it and bought a Lomax breaker and 3 piece jumper. Call me crazy but I liked the the break/jump better than my dedicated breaker better for breaking. I feel the breaker was a bit clunky. Not sure why but it felt that way. The jumper was great.

I sold both and now am using a custom break/jump by a custom Cuemaker I deal cues for (Jim Vest). My next step is to have him build me a break/jump plus 3 piece jump handle. It's perfect for what I want and need. Saves a lot of case space.

The Jim Vest break/jumps are awesome, honestly never thought I'd sell my Lomax cues. Not just saying it either.

In that case Bill, you may want to change your sig

I saw a lomax jump cue for sale at 380 dollars the other day. Used, and a horrible colour.

Madness. I got my jump cue free with a playing cue I bought a few years ago. It jumps about as well as most I've hit with.

From my experience, break jumps break well enough, but you're better served owning an individual jump cue.
