I love the feel of a full splice cue!
This is my Trilogy of Titlist cues. Any guesses on the maker of the conversion?

nope!!!!!!!
Have you seen the steel jointed cue without a wrap? I'm guessing it's been cut and a handle added based, on the length/placement of the points. As far as I'm concerned. this is the ONLY way to do a wrapped conversion.
Otherwise the points come out too short or the wrap is too close to the bottom, or the joint diameter is too small. Frankly I don't buy into the whole "full splice is better" thing. It looks good on an unwrapped cue but I doubt,
with a blind test, a well done short splice, or a cut and joined (which is the same as a short splice) full splice could be distinguished from a full spliced cue. Sure it's possible to screw up the "A" joint construction on a cue and
make it feel like crap, but if it's done by a competent cuemaker, in a blind test you'll never know it was joined! JMHO

The cue is the last one in these photos.
Joe told me that when the wrap was off they found that the cue had not been cut

I found the unfinished blank on AZ last year, the Hoppe was beautifuly done by Scott Sherbine, and the conversion is a 60's Paridise that I recently baught from classiccues Joe Vanburen. Joe had Dan Deshaw replace the wrap, and told me that they found that the cue had not been cut.
