This 57” inch, three section cue is crafted by Peradon in England from kiln dried, North American Ash and Rosewood.
Manufacture & Specifications
The Ash is carefully selected for strength and straightness before being turned and machine spliced to the Rosewood butt timber.
A Rosewood front splice and Red and Yellow veneers are then spliced to the butt section to further enhance the appearance.
The cue is then turned to its final tapered finish before the numerous sanding and finishing processes are undertaken to achieve a ‘silk smooth’ finish.
This cue is fitted a ‘quick action’ joint in the center to make the cue more portable and a ‘quick action’ dome joint’ 8″ from the butt of the cue. The dome joint enables the player to quickly remove the bottom 8″ of the cue to reveal a rounded end on the shaft. This makes it possible for the player to use the shaft of the cue, which due to the brass dome still has good weight, for those awkward shots in restricted spaces.
To eliminate joint problems both sections of both joints are precision turned from a single piece of solid brass and are fitted to ensure precise alignment.
The butt is finished with a Peradon Flare name disc and leather butt pad.
