Hey all, just looking for suggestions on reputable Los Angeles (or Southern CA) shops for tip replacements. Have been through the old threads here but some shops have closed, etc. and perhaps new shops have popped up as well? Anyone with good experiences out there would be happy to hear your feedback. Was looking at Tiger Products in Burbank but not sure if they'd be happy with me bringing in a non-Tiger tip! :eek:

HardTimes doesn't tip cues anymore? Might call maker Eddie Cohen. http://cohencues.com/pricing-repairs/
 
Eddie Cohen - Cerritos
Kent Davis - Inland Empire
Joey Chin - RIverside
Andrew Park - West Los Angeles
Ariel Carmeli - Corona, CA
Tiger Products (will replace a non-tiger tip).
Gibbi Tkatch - North Hollywood
Jude Hammond - Orange County

I would trust any of these guys - It just depends where you live.
 
If you find yourself a little north of LA in the Santa Barbara area, try calling Mike Rys. He does excellent work. 805-698-6358

Billiards and Barstools in Lawndale on Hawthorne Blvd. They do tip replacements there!

How does one get a hold of Jude Hammond? I have several cues that need tips.
 
Carlos Coll on the west side replaced my tip very well about a year ago. He also makes custom cues. I haven't spoken to him in about a year, but I assume he is still doing work on tips.
 
Thanks all. Studio City area so definitely a few options for me, so thank you all for the great recommendations. Could also use this opportunity and make an afternoon of my tip replacements elsewhere. Cheers!
