DESCRIPTION
Thunder Three Section 8 Ball Pool Cue
This 55” inch, three section cue is crafted by Peradon in England from kiln dried, North American Ash and Rosewood.
Manufacture & Specifications
The Ash is carefully selected for strength and straightness
before being turned and machine spliced to the Rosewood butt
timber.
A Rosewood front splice and Orange & Blue veneers are
then spliced to the butt section to further enhance the
appearance.
The cue is then turned to its final tapered finish before the
numerous sanding and finishing processes are undertaken to achieve
a 'silk smooth' finish.
This cue is fitted a 'quick action' joint in the center to make
the cue more portable and a 'quick action' dome joint' 8" from the
butt of the cue. The dome joint enables the player to quickly
remove the bottom 8" of the cue to reveal a rounded end on the
shaft. This makes it possible for the player to use the shaft of
the cue, which due to the brass dome still has good weight, for
those awkward shots in restricted spaces.
To eliminate joint problems both sections of both joints are
precision turned from a single piece of solid brass and are fitted
to ensure precise alignment.
The butt is finished with a Peradon Thunder name disc and leather
butt pad.
This cue features a solid brass ferrule and 8 to 8½mm Elkmaster

* The quality of the ash shaft is of the utmost importance when
crafting a cue. Shafts are extensively selected with only a small
percentage of the pieces processed making the grade for production
of these cues. In order to maintain the highest standards of
selection Peradon purchase more ash than any other English cue
makers.
