Description

Color Money Cue Legacy

The Joss N7 Color Money Cue holds a special place in cue-making history.
Since 1985, it has remained one of the most recognized models ever produced by Joss.
Moreover, its appearance in the 1986 film The Color of Money elevated the cue to legendary status among players and collectors alike.

For decades, enthusiasts have sought out this design because it combines timeless styling with dependable performance.
As a result, the N7 remains one of the most requested cues in the Joss lineup.

Not only does this cue represent a memorable chapter in the history of billiards, but it also reflects the craftsmanship and attention to detail that have defined Joss for generations.

Iconic Movie Cue Design

The forearm features high-figure curly maple sourced from Canada. Often called fiddle-back maple because of its use in fine violins, this premium wood displays a beautiful three-dimensional grain pattern that seems to move as light crosses its surface.

Next, four classic ebony points, accented with red and natural veneers, create the unmistakable appearance that made this cue famous.
Bold black outlines frame each point, adding contrast and visual depth.

Meanwhile, the butt sleeve features five large mother-of-pearl diamonds framed by elegant maple “V” inlays.
Together, these details create a design that remains instantly recognizable more than four decades later.

Wood is a natural substance, and the grain and color can vary greatly.
Therefore, every N7 develops its own unique appearance.

Vintage Details and Traditional Craftsmanship

One of the most distinctive features of the N7 is its hand-engraved 1½-inch butt plate. Just as it was more than fifty years ago, the JOSS name is engraved by hand, adding authentic vintage character to every cue.

Additionally, a traditional white-with-black-spot Irish linen wrap provides excellent grip and a timeless look.
Joss hand-presses every wrap to ensure a smooth feel and dependable performance.

Furthermore, the stainless-steel joint receives a mirror polish that complements the cue’s elegant appearance while delivering the firm, responsive hit many experienced players prefer.

Full-Core Joss Performance

Beyond its beauty, the Color Money Cue is built to perform.

A full-length hard maple core extends from the butt plate to the joint.
Consequently, the cue delivers the solid one-piece feel that has made Joss famous throughout the industry.

Moreover, full-core construction helps resist warpage while promoting long-term stability and consistency.
Whether you are playing position, drawing the cue ball, or controlling speed, the N7 responds with confidence and precision.

Because of this proven design, many players consider the N7 one of the finest playing cues Joss has ever produced.

Proudly Made in the USA

The Joss N7 combines movie history, classic design, and professional-level performance in one remarkable cue.

Proudly Made in the USA, it reflects decades of innovation, craftsmanship, and dedication to quality.
From the curly maple forearm and ebony points to the pearl inlays and full-core construction, every detail serves a purpose.

The N7 is more than a cue.
It is a piece of billiards history, a collector’s treasure, and a serious playing instrument.
