Mezz cues commonly used by pros
- Thread starter John oleson

Don't take this wrong way but why would you base your cue choice on what some pro uses? The Mezz pros i've seen lately use various butts but almost always an Ignite shaft. Here's their list: https://mezzcue.com/en/players_pool
Not always and definitely not all.
A lot of the European players that are sponsored by Mezz and some that don’t are playing with this model:
ACE-2181 Billiard Cue
Championship Mindset The newly revamped ACE Series is equipped with the Wavy 2 joint system, the ultimate precision joint that produces a solid feel and feedback. Along with the highly rated low deflection WX Sigma Shaft, boosting performance and consistency that every champion desires. Miki's...

But it doesn’t really matter, I’m sure that all models in a series plays just the same and they are different just in design

Mezz's website has many players using the Ignite shaft. The only Exceed anything on their website is Exceed EX-Pro. I looked at several Mezz players for the shafts they used and did not see any EX-Pros listed. I did see some Hybrid shafts which preceded the EX-Pro.
There is an Exceed company with a website that looks like the Mezz website and sells Exceed cues with Mezz EX-Pro or Ignite shafts: https://www.exceedcue.com/english/
no they don't.

The best cue in the market right now in my opinion. Dollar for dollar there isn't a cue better.
With that said, they released a new shaft recently and its being bought and resold.
Apparently, Mezz released a bigger carbon shaft, LOL and someone at my pool hall said he was getting one and they are apparently all sold out. He asked me if I wanted one and that "his guy" has 6 of them. I asked the price and the guy is selling them for $800. No thanks.

I would wear his shoes when I was playing basketball in high school. They were great shoes and lasted indoors and outdoors. I don't know how they are made today in terms of performance.
I still own many pairs of his shoes today.
I can remember those days when a league player had a $400-$500 cue and that was high-rolling it. Now most rooms are filled with shafts that start around that price. Of course time value of money factors in, but still a steep increase. It would be interesting to see Predator's profit margin on carbon shafts.
I'd ballpark it at $250-300 per shaft given that they are/were at least assembled in the U.S.
