Where to get a muecci refinished?

[SpiritedDiscussions]

My father has an old 97-12 with a nick on the butt and a few nicks. He’s curious about getting it refinished. Any suggestions are much appreciated.

Meucci does it

I had my playing cue refinished 3 years ago and they did a GREAT job .
Scott is great to work with .
They are well known.

Have had a dozen at least refinished at Meucci. They a do a good job and pricing is good. However Proficient is hands down the best refinish work i have had done. Over the years i have had cues refinished at over a dozen different places and as i stated no comparison.

Another vote for Proficient.

With a Meucci you're probably better off restarting instead, right? Just kidding, I have two and really like both of them. As to where to take it, I'm with the others on here - Proficient.

Yup proficient . I’ve read way to many horror stories of people sending their cue’s to meucci and it taking forever to get it back.

There have been too many recent horror stories about repair work and quality at Meucci for me to trust them with anything. And that's coming from someone who has always had a soft spot in his heart for the brand. I was around for the 80's and 90's glory days and I hope they're able to turn things around and get back to that.

I've had Proficient do refinish work for me and the quality, turnaround time, and communication are second to none. They're as legit as they come.

My brother had his 95-11 refinished at Meucci last Summer. Took about ~6 weeks, and the finished product is quality. Price is good too at $125 to refinish a butt & shaft. They have recently initiated a waitlist with an 8 week lead-time. I've had my 95-13 in the que for 5 weeks, so we will see.

Ryan Theewen AZB’s (RATCues) did mine. Super job. Ryan was the main repair mechanic at Meuller’s Sporting Goods for decades. He worked on a zillion Meuccis.

Scott Sherbine (Proficient) and Scott Erwin are two names that come up for vintage Meucci refurbs.

Well this thread has been incredibly helpful. I’ll be calling Proficient tomorrow about both the Meucci, and after these comments, my personal cue.

Thanks y’all.

I have have 6 Cues reworked /refinished in the past two years at Meucci and I was pleased with every one...looked like new when I got them back

Anywhere except Meucci. Proficient would be your best choice.

I've heard Erwin has had some probs lately.
