Snakewood EJR signature cues

[billabong]

agreed one unit you would not bother to order but as to cue length, the standard for many years was based on a players name i have forgotton i imagine andy hunter will remember and it was 56.25 i think!

Excellent, in that case, Cue 2 is Standard length, and 10.7mm tip, and
Cue 1 is a quarter inch shorter than standard length.

All offers considered.

I've had both of these cues in my hand and both, in my opinion, are players. Which is not always the case with these.

Yeah they do actually look like very nice cues. (Just having a bit of banter with Bill) Dont know wether he's including that case in the sale but they do look great as a pair in it.

These are two lovely Cues so please dont think i am slating them in anyway as im not as i said they are stunning Cues!.... I personally think these cues were Longer Originally, i know sometimes the weights are alittle bit out but not that much! my personal opinion would be they have been alterd or near tip been damaged Split like alot of old cues i have bought which didnt have ferrules maybe when made originally.

I have also had 100's maybe 1000's of Old Cues thru my hands with Buying/Selling and alot of Re-Tipping and I will say 95% are Longer than 55" and maybe 90% Longer than 56" so i dont think most Old Cues were made that short Unless they were made for Ladies which they made around 54"-55" Long! and too be 100% Honest the Mens Cues were Mostly made approx 57" to 58" Hope this helps.

Thanks for not slating them in any way Gazza147.

Why speculate that the cues have been damaged / split, when you've never actually seen them in person ?


Perhaps you think all 12 cues in the auction lot, all from the same house, and all the same length +/- quarter inch,

were all bought longer, split / damaged , then all repaired to the same length ? :upset:

If that's you NOT slating them, please just NOT slate them to yourself. .

with the greatest respect you are talking balls! the size of cues from about 1810 to about 1930/35 were based on playing cue of 24 times professional billiard champion edward jonathan kentfield - usually known as jonathan kentfield, his cue was 55.75" long and this was the standard templated cue size until considerably after these cues were made.
