Joss Cues® Authentic Traditional Shaft Dash ring

Description

Through the last 40+ years, I have changed a great many parts of
the Joss Cue and feel that they have all been successful in making a better playing and longer-lasting cue.
I have conducted quite a few “on the road” tests for the last two years with new ferrules and different installation methods.
When I started Joss Cues (1968), all ferrules were one-half to seven-eights of an inch long.

I have concluded that the old way may have been a better way.
All new Joss Cues will have the old original three-quarters of an inch capped ferrule.
This ferrule will still be threaded on a wood tenon but shorter.
This type of ferrule has a better hit and feel.
The shorter tenon has less chance to hinge over and inadvertently spin the ball.
At the same time, it is solid and will result in a longer-lasting cue.

The Joss shaft has an insert made of linen base phenolic fiber.
This insert will hold the pin snugger than a standard brass insert and keep the shaft vibrations to a minimum when spinning the ball.

This shaft system can make a significant difference when that extra effort is needed.
