[QUOTE="Diabolic, post: 178409, member: 544985"] If you want a cue that looks good and plays good, get a Cuetec or Lucasi. If you want lots of spin action for english shots, get a Meucci, but they offer slightly less control because of the average taper length. I play with a $600 Buddy Hall signature Lucasi - their top non-custom cue of '02. I'm am a BIG advocate of the Lucasi brand. I can't stand the "rubbery" feel of a Meucci when striking the ball with any force. Some people don't notice it - some do. I have been waiting on my custom Shick for about 18 months. They don't get any better than the cues he makes, anywhere in the world. It shouldn't be more than another, oh... 6-12 more months before mine is completed. Heh. Pay a fortune and wait 2+ years for it, but it's worth it in the end. As for Wal-Mart cues, all I can is "WTF???" Just grab a broom handle and start poking. [/QUOTE]
