Don't get me wrong, I like McDermott's. I think they are a great cue for the beginner to mid level players. But for the kind of money that they want for any of the cues in the Prestige series. I could have a custom cue made my way with everything that I want in it, and it would be one of a kind. Specially for the kind of money that the new one is going to be listed at!! I can't see paying that kind of money for a cue that there's going to be 100 of!!
Like I said, they are pretty cues. If I had that kind of money to throw around I would own one, just to add to my collection. JMHO
