I'd also like to know the answer to this - maybe it would generate more interest if it was asked in the main forum?
I've played with a Blak, which is also C4, so I'm presuming it's pretty much the same as an Ikon. There was noticeably little in terms of vibration throughout the butt, which I'm guessing is what they call 'buzz'. Sorry I can't help more - I have very little experience of hitting with any pool cue so can't really comment further - but I am considering buying a Pred SP, so am interested in responses.

I would also like to know if anyone has played with a predator sneaky pete. I played with a team members Ikon with a Z2 shaft and I liked it very much. I have my eye on the predator sneaky pete with the wrap. I know this is a full splice cue and would like to know if anyone has hit with one and what they thought about it.
I personally prefer full splice cues, vibration is considerably low because of the way full splice are made. Blak series have ebony nose and a phenolic insert. I really like how ikon 7 plays.I havent hit with other ikon models.
I think if you like wrapless than you can go for Sneaky, and if you like wrap than conisder ikon.
Predator is coming up with two new special edition models in collabration with mezz, should be out in a week or so.
Check them out:thumbup:

I was considering the Ikon 2 but a team member has one and I feel funny about getting the same cue he does. I like the sneaky pete but I like the 4 pointer with the wrap. I am not sure I could get used to a wrap less cue. I am sure all the Ikon cues play the same, but I would not get one of the pricier Ikons since they are all the Ikon 1 or 2 with different designs.
Sneaky all the way!
The sneaky's play real good and nice energy transfer to the backhand.I've tryed a Blak series cue and did not like it,but I think it was the way the cue was balanced.Balance of a cue is one big requirement for me.The sneaky's also have a Phenolic insert in the joint and shaft.Great cue for the money,and would be my pick if I had to play with either.Takecare and Goodluck.

terrible!
Out of every Predator cue in history,those 2 Preds are the worst looking Preds ever.There's one model in the Icon series that has orange inlays that looks just as bad.Predator better hire a new design man quick if that stuff keeps coming out of the factory.I still love Predator but with Icon,P3,and these 2 cues I think they've hit a brick wall.With the Quiet Rollers they showed a spark,with these cues the spark is gone.Just my opinion
