Can anyone give me the low-down on Lucasi cues? Where they are made, etc.? I did a search, but did not come up with anything.
I basically agree, though for around the same money I'd rather have a Joss. To me, and this is subjective, Lucasi's have a "tinnny" hit, without a lot of feel.Jack Flanagan said:some are made in China, some made in Japan,,,,,good cues in my opinion, although there will be a lot of detracters on this forum.
"Lucasi" came out of Jim Lucas' name,,,owner/distributor in USA is Cue&Case Sales, Florida...for some reason they don't have a working website.
I have been a dealer in this brand for about 4 years,,,had very few defects; which were readily, speedily, and cheerfully replaced by Cue&Case
they are usually the largest show at billiard expos...I have nothing but good words for them.....j

Maniac said:This isn't the kind of info you asked for, but I have one Lucasi cue (#LE-66). My particular cue doesn't feel "tinny" in my hands. I use it now with a Predator Z shaft, but even when I screw on the original shaft, it has a good hit and feel. I just prefer the 11.75mm diameter of the Z shaft better. Remember, hit and feel is all subjective to each individual's taste.

hemicudas said:I totally agree, Maniac. Even with the Z shaft. They hit extremely well. Best cue you can buy, for the price. This is the one I have. With 2 shafts, not the Z, it's around $250.
i used that same cue for years. I recently switched to another Lucasi, exact same hit and feel. Great cues! (i had to switch bc im not very careful with cues and they look like shitt after a few years)Jack Flanagan said:that's an L2007 Lucasi in Hemicuda's post...(if anybody was wanting one like it... j
I have played with that model cue. I liked the one I had very much. Good bang for your buck.Klopek said:I'm strongly considering picking up this Lucasi cue on ebay cause I want a cue with a wood-wood joint and no wrap. This would be the perfect solution, especially since it's very inexpensive.

I made the seller an offer, maybe he'll bite. I really do love the simplicity of the cue design. I consider myself very traditional, so a sneaky just seems to suit my personality. I've been using a stainless joint but am going towards a slightly softer hitting cue. I also like the longer taper (15") since my cue has a short taper (10"). I use a closed bridge the majority of the time so the longer taper will really feel much better.Dead Money said:That is the stick I got for my friend. She loves it and I like hitting the balls with it too. I think for the money you will be very pleased with it![]()
