Mike Webb Dufferin Conversion FS on Ebay

I am the original owner of this Dufferin one piece house cue. It's a very nice playing cue.

This is what I remember Mr. Webb doing:

Install wood/wood joint (I asked for it to screw together very tightly)
Install linen wrap
replace rubber bumper with a nicer looking one
Change shaft taper to match a Schon
Install new tip/ferrule (I can't remember what kind)
The shaft is the original shaft from the one piece cue.

The listing says that the taper was done by Mike Webb, does that mean that it is not a Webb shaft?

right. its the shaft from the dufferin. Webb did the taper.
 
Definition of a conversion:
Re taper butt to the cue makers butt taper,
Add a joint
Refinish the butt
supply a new shaft
If these steps were not done, it is what it is,
Nothing was done to this cue to warrant putting my name on it.
You have a house cue converted to a two piece, that's all.

I just wanted to clarify what you had, it was presented wrongly at the time you bought it also. Hal and yourself are good guys, but just because someone does a quick change, it doesn't make that item, a representation of their work.
