The clean, unassuming design of the Joss JOS74 pool cue celebrates the exotic woods used in the old-time craftsmanship of this cue. The butt is crafted with a stunning bloodwood forearm, curly maple wood in the "wrap" section and a bloodwood sleeve with a band of curly maple wood decorated with holly wood diamond inlays outlined in African blackwood. External beauty aside, it's the cue's magnificent performance that will bring you delight. Players who appreciate a stiff hit will love this cue, with its stainless steel joint and shorter shaft taper.
