Product Description:
This is a Cuetec Thunderbolt cue. The forearm is black, with masked cut-outs revealing the natural maple below. There are six points made in this knock-out manner. The points are highly detailed, and inset with gold. The butt sleeve features six windows done using the same technique as the forearm. These intricate windows are detailed in black and gold. The butt sleeve is set off from the rest of the cue with two gold rings. The Thunderbolt cues come with a special shaft. Unlike a graphite or fiberglass-coated Cuetec shaft, the Thunderbolt is maple. What makes it different from any other shaft on the market is the unique graphite truss rod that has been put into the center of the shaft. This rod prevents the shaft from warping, but drives harder with less deflection. The shaft is also able to have a very long (20 inch!) taper because of the added strength of the graphite truss rod. This pool stick features black and white Irish linen wraps and a stainless steel joint. Cuetec cues are known for their durability and quality. Superior balance and a professional taper add to the quality hit enjoyed by professionals such as Earl Strickland and Allison Fisher. It has a 13mm layered pigskin tip. Joint protectors are included.
