Where To Buy Snooker Cue In Singapore?

Where can I buy a snooker cue that is handmade customised or bespoke?

  • I want to get hold of snooker cue that is handmade customised or bespoke. the snooker cue needs to be customised to my specification but I can't find a good place online to purchase.

  • Answer:

    Hey there, You will really love getting a snooker cue made to your specific requirements. If you are after something customised I would strongly recommend not buying online or without speaking to the cue maker and being VERY clear about what you are after. Anything bespoke like this is completely non refundable so if you didn't like the weight or design you would be stuck with something that could have cost you several hundred pounds. I'm not sure if the cue is for you or if you want something fancy as a gift. My advice if it's a give for a good player is to send them to the cue maker and let the cue maker know the budget you have to spend. A cue is a very personal thing as i'm sure you know. We sponsor a player called Gareth Potts. He is a pool player but has his cues made by http://www.twcues.co.uk/about.php who also make snooker cues. You will be looking at spending in access of £350 for a custom cue. You can buy off the shelf cues that are really very good but I suspect you are after something very particular. We have a massive range of cues that are under £350. http://www.homeleisuredirect.com/pool-table-accessories/snooker-cues/?page=2#productlist and have a number in our Bristol Showroom if you wanted to come visit and get a feel for them. Good luck with finding something. I think you'll find Tony's cues are some of the best if it is definitely custom you are after. :)

To echo another poster's advice I wouldn't go about having a cue made entirely via a website or email etc, It would be a good idea to talk to the cue maker and tell them what you would like in a cue, you can describe what you'd like in better detail and you can ask for detailed requirements that wouldn't always be advertised in order forms such as, shaft rigidity, different tapers, specific grain patterns, specific splice wood colouring.......etc etc. I'm not sure where in the UK you are situated, but I've included where the cue makers are in the country as well. All the cue makers listed are excellent craftsmen and IMO currently the best cue makers in the United Kingdom.

Trevor White for example currently has a 40+ week waiting time on all his cues.
