      Right , about the cue & Reg .

      Finish is very smooth , nice balance to the cue and a flex in the shaft . So not a stiff cue .

      This is one of the first ' Signature ' Cues in Reg's new range , and he had a slight delay in getting the joints . So my 6 week manufacturing period turned into 7/8 weeks .

      But for a UK handmade cue to be turned around in that time is fantastic . I believe that he is very busy at the moment as well .

      I like the way that the joint is individually numbered , and you also get a certificate .........so does go a long way to hinder the fake cue makers out there .


      Throughout the process i was emailed , telephoned with updates and twice sent photos of the actual cue in various stages . Proper customer service .

      On speaking to Reg , you can tell how passionate he is about cue making . He has been developing the joint for many years .

      I just hope the cue plays as well as it feels and looks .


      Hopefully Reg will come on here to explain more about his new range , new joint etc........ but this guy , in my opinion , is going places !

      And finally , i think his prices are very reasonable when comparing to the established elite . [ Shocked to see the cheapest Ultimate at £1k now ]
      I can only reiterate this post. Reg has been awesome with me throughout.
      Always a pleasure

                hi reg, interesting twist of words there, havent hear that before. for you what would be the art of work of making a cue?

                • The art of work is in doing as little as possible for as much as possible. See politicians and estate agents. I reckon cue makers probably have it the other way around. Two quid an hour until their fingers bleed. Labour of love or love of labour?

                  • Lol I can you I've been so busy my fingers have been bleeding lol. Unfortunately this trade is a labour of love.
                    I don't think I'll ever be a millionaire that's for sure.
                    But I love it so I'll keep plodding on.

                          As we was saying about fingers bleeding. This is what is know as a cue makers finger lol. As you can see there's a previous scar. Lol

                                Looks very nice I don't normally like black badges but this looks great how long do you make your splices on a plain ebony cue.
