Forgive my ignorance in these matters. I am but a humble beginer in these things..
I've managed to acquire a cheap shaft.
"McDermott I3 shaft-McDermott Quick Release joint, Railroad gold-silver collar"
Logically, and to my chagrin, it does not fit my McDermott cue..
Doh!
Is there a virtue in seeking the right butt from somewhere, if so, what should I be asking for/looking for or might I just as well bang it back on ebay and take any losses on the chin?
I'm in the UK btw - in case that is relevant.
Many thanks in advance!
