Joss Cues Heritage & Craftsmanship
Joss Cues® are handcrafted in the USA in Towson, Maryland by the Janes family team led by Stephen Janes, who learned cue making under his father, Dan Janes—the founder of Joss Cues. Dan and his good friend Bill Stroud started the Joss Cue Company in 1968 (the word “Joss” means luck), and in 1972 Dan bought Bill out and expanded Joss into one of the most recognized American cue brands.
Dan was known for staying ahead of the market—standardizing joint sizes early so shafts could be interchangeable, transitioning from V-groove points and pantograph work into CNC-machined points and inlays, and pioneering unique handle-joining techniques seen in some of his “hustler” style cues. He was inducted into the International Cuemakers Hall of Fame (2012), inducted into the American Cuemakers Association Hall of Fame (2003), and received the ACA’s Lifetime Achievement Award in 2022. Dan passed away on June 20, 2023.
Stephen continues that legacy with the same integrity, precision, and playability-first standards Joss is known for—and was recognized as the ACA Cuemaker of the Year (2017).
