This is a playing cue with beautiful cherry blossom inlays. Joint: Radial, with joint cap. Shaft: Ferrule diameter 12mm, conical taper *We have modified this cue at our workshop to accept MEZZ weight bolts with weight holes. Weight bolts are compatible with MEZZ, but longer ones may not fit. (The included bolt is 1 oz.) The butt weight includes the weight bolt. Due to the nature of wood products, please refrain from purchasing if you are seeking absolute perfection.
