mastercue are good cues - but their joints are poor.
the parris is sold although i have been offered a 3/4 elite.
Thanks ADR, it looks perfect, but it's 2 1/2 ounces too heavy for me. Specs and design-wise it's the cue of my my dreams.
If I bought it would there be anything I could do to reduce the weight without affecting the balance point too much? Looks like there's a bit of weight in that joint and balance point at 18 is about as far forward as I'd want to go...
Is it at TW for adjustment? or just for resale. Why you parting with it? How much? Do you know how much split will cost?
Alot of question I know.

After a few days a small crack at the butt end appeared. I am a perfectionist so i sent the cue to Trevor to have it repaired.
The cue is absolutely fantastic but a bit too long for me.
So i will have a new one made by Trevor with my specs.
About the cost for splitting you should ask trevs1 or ADR147. They both know the cue and can proof that there is nothing wrong with it.
The split in the butt is this totally repairable? Any accessories with the cue? I cue with name plate to the right (right handed) please confirm chevrons would not be visible when cueing.
If I go ahead how would I get money to you for cue?
How does Trev get payment for split etc normally?
Can both get money via paypal? not sure how all this works.
Bear in mind if you convert it to a 2pc centre split (at least I think that's what you're talking about) it will be much harder to sell on. Hardly anyone wants them anymore. Not only that but it won't be the same cue. The balance will be brought forward and you'll add about 1 oz to the weight. I wouldn't bother personally especially with an expensive cue. Doesn't matter with something you don't mind experimenting on though. I've had countless jobs done by various makers. Some I've regretted..

To stop the problem with weight that you have pointed out I would suggest having a bob akers joint fitted its made from perspex and would add less weight than a solid brass joint.
Just because its old, doesn't mean its worth a fortune!!
