LS89-17 Legacy

Description

Dan Janes was a highly influential figure in cue making, and the Legacy series represents a special part of his legacy.
His commitment to combining functionality with aesthetics allowed his cues to stand out as high-quality tools for players while still being works of art.
These designs, introduced between 1983 and 1991, show the evolution of his craft during that period, as he worked to refine every detail to suit the needs of serious players.

It’s impressive that his dedication to the craft led to recognition in not one but two prestigious halls of fame.

2003 American Cue Makers Association Hall of Fame

2013 International Cue Makers Association Hall of Fame

Dan received a lifetime achievement award in 2022 from the ACA.

His work shaped the way cues are designed and influenced the game itself. If you’re a cue enthusiast or collector, the Legacy series represents the care and precision that went into his work.

 A Personal Favorite of Dan’s

LS89-17

is one of Dan’s all-time favorite cues. It continues the legacy of the groundbreaking floating point inlay design introduced in 1982.

A true masterpiece, this cue blends tradition, innovation, and elegance in a way that only a few can match.

This cue begins with a stainless-steel joint, hand-polished to a mirror finish for durability and visual appeal.

Designed for both seasoned professionals and collectors, the LS89-17 showcases intricate inlays of faux ivory and ebony framed by a surrounding inlay of colored maple.
This stunning design perfectly complements the points, creating a harmonious balance that stands out in both craftsmanship and style.

Finished with a hand-pressed Irish linen wrap, this cue not only looks traditional—it feels that way too, delivering a secure grip and smooth stroke.

Whether you’re drawn to its historical significance or its impeccable beauty, the LS89-17 is a cue that embodies Dan’s commitment to quality and the game, a true testament to the artistry of cue making.

The LS89-17 features an entire core that runs from the butt plate to the joint.
Among the many benefits of this construction is warpage resistance.
In addition, this core delivers a one-piece feel and a superior hit.
|The center core makes Joss the most solid playing cue in the industry.
