Amerola Aluminum Cue - 57"

I bought the 21 ounce model.

Pros:

- perfectly straight
- slides very easily through your fingers
- black handle has a good feel to it and looks OK (sort of utilitarian)
- good results on the pool table
- replacement screw-in tip can be replaced in about 10 seconds; Morpro Screw In Tips For Wood and Aluminum Cue
- inexpensive for a decent cue

Cons:

- balance point is 18" from the butt, but it feels as though 90% the cue's weight is at that point. I.e., the rest of the cue is feather-light.
- the screw-on tip sometimes loosens on its own; only takes a second or two to re-tighten the tip, but it's annoying.
- cue makes a sound when you hit the ball, as though you've just whacked a hollow aluminum tube..., which you have, since the cue is hollow aluminum.

Other:

- one piece (does not come apart in the middle)
- made in Malaysia

Summary:

This cue is straight as an arrow and slides easily, making it a decent cue; especially for the money. If you don't want to spend the money for a pro-quality cue (e.g., a Lucasi), this one's not a bad choice.

3 stars for the cue; an extra star for value...
