    Nothing perfect about those chevrons more about the other cheap cue i see, any person to me who's fascinated about chevrons and how even they are clueless and wouldn't know a decent cue if it dropped on their boat.

I think this proves that the best shafts out there are those without so called starting grids

    If the specs suit you I would seriously consider it :snooker:
    Are you the original owner?????

    WOW if true and the Specs are O.k but gee i would of liked it a tad longer. ((((

    I am just over 6ft tall and i am worried it may be a tad short.
    No I wasn't the original owner just its custodian for a month or two before it sold in this country before being sold again and heading to Australia.

    Rule of thumb does suggest that the cue may be shorter than ideal for you but it doesn't mean it couldn't work in your hands.

    O.k i was testing out my shortest Cue in my rack just now on my home table which is the same size as this MW.

    When holding the Cue correctly with my Elbow in a perfect 90 degree angle to my arm while striking the Cue ball to ensure good follow through and smooth power delivery i have 2-3cms of overhang MAX left of the Cue. I have not got really long arms or big wing span so to speak.

    Decisions Decisions!!! And i will need extensions for sure which are not included.

    You need to pay out to get it shortened/retapered, while knocking £££'s off the resale price . .

    Hard to get prices on the MW website especially for a Cue that is discontinued.
    Honestly can't remember, early one's were £175 ish, but that increased a lot*towards the end, I have £275 in my head but can't be certain
    Yep that was right JRC and this cue was more than that being ordered through the VCM for a premium shaft
