Anyone know of a place, online, that has a good selection of 3C cues? I've searched and searched but keep coming up pretty much empty handed. It seems as if there aren't any pages with a large selection of 3C cues like there are for pool cues. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,

I should say "NICE" 3C cues

You don't have to look any further than right here, Jamison Neu has Dieckman cues, and I believe there are several more makers that are members here too.
 
Cool. I just found Schuler's site and sent them a message. I'm more than willing to talk to people here too.

was told by a Japanese guy that Adam or Longoni is the way to go......but I think there has to be more than that
 
mully hit me up with what you are looking for. If I remember from way back you are from Cincinnati or about, i'll do what I can to help a OhiOian out. If your looking for a schuler let me know exactly what you want and I will save you some coin. If you want Longoni I should be able to help there also. Layani does post here from time to time as well.
 
What price range are you in you said nice so I assume your looking for a one of a kind handcrafted cue.... Let me know my number is 704-624-0647

I can get you a "NICE" cue for a good price!

This is the place to look for carom cue's.

I think you'd end up being happy with any of the cuemakers mentioned so far: Kilby, Dieckman, Schuler or Longoni. I spent a while mulling them over: each maker has a good reputation and fine-looking cues to boot.

I ended up with a Schuler because a local player had one, I loved the balance, it was exactly the Schuler 3C cue I'd looked at online and liked, etc. The Schuler became my regular playing cue for both carom and pool.
 
Don't overlook Layani. A friend of mine just bought one and he loves it. He previously played with a Schuler. I have a custom Dieckman and wouldn't part with it for the world, but I tried my friend's Layani, ran a six my first inning, and I liked the feel from the start.

Thanks for that. I had no idea that it was full.

I'd also like to thank everyone that has responded to this thread. I'm currently thinking about buying a 3C cue but haven't fully decided what I want. Talking to you guys I'm leaning towards Schuler but talking to the guy that owns the pool hall here he says that Adam is the way to go for 3C. Since I'm ignorant when it comes to 3C cues I'm not sure which way to go.

Whoa, I'm kind of digging on that cue third from the left in his photos. How much would something like that run? I'm also looking to ask about making a cue instead of one in stock because I'd like it to be a little longer. I'm tall and those short stubby 3C cues really feel strange to me, I can't get a comfortable body position using them.

I don't know which picture your looking at so I can't answer your question...

I have a Dieckman cue here at my house that is an inch or two taller than most pool cues...it's $1,500.

My advice is to call Dieckman and place an order. He can make just about any cue you want. I know for a fact he has three billiard cues at his house I think he said they were ready or would be ready soon.

Yes Dieckman has 2 or 3 in stock and ready to ship. Also tons of semi finished. If you go with him the time spent working through the details, and he loves detail, will be unforgettable and you'll end up with the last cue you'll ever buy.

Some of the cues here are pool cues.
4th one from the right I believe is a carom cue and is my favorite of the bunch. The dark red teardrops set in black looks awesome.

Mullyman, it all depend what price range you want to stay at. If you cannot afford a Dieckman, maybe you can find a cuemaker in Japan

A Very dear Friend and mentor of Dieckman was Carl Conlon, who cues were made by Helmstetter / Adams , the CCS design.

I have never played with one of his 3C cues but I remember when he lived in Tucson, he made some very nice shooting cues. After he moved to Oregon, he started making 3C cues. From what I've heard they are nice looking and playing.:smile:
I'm still hanging onto one of his original jump/break cues he ever made. :D
