Schon cue
This Schon cue was recently just refinished here at Proficient Billiards.
Schön Cues is a highly regarded, family-owned custom pool cue manufacturer established in 1981 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin by Terry Romine Sr. and Bob Runde. Known for their signature stiff, crisp hit and artisan handcrafted detail, the name literally stands for the German meaning behind the word—”Beautiful”. The cues are built in small quantities by a tight staff of master craftsmen and are widely sought after for maintaining superb resale value.
Key Engineering & Playing Characteristics
- The Stiff Hit: Achieved through a heavy-duty piloted stainless steel joint, a 5/16×14 pin, and a shorter shaft taper.
- Genuine Inlays: All diamonds, spears, and points are individual pieces of exotic wood, abalone, mother-of-pearl, or silver hand-cut and leveled flush with the surface—never decals or stickers.
- Premium Materials: Built using fully aged hard rock maple shafts cured for years to prevent warping, accompanied by exotic wood bases like Ebony, Cocobolo, Bocote, and Tulipwood.
- Interchangeable Shafts: Every cue is finished using exact, unified standards, allowing new factory Schön Custom Cues Shafts to screw seamlessly onto almost any Schön butt.
