Full Disclosure on Meucci Cues
At Budget Billiards, we believe in full transparency about the products we sell. Here’s what you should know about Meucci Cues under the current ownership:
- Warranty Coverage: Meucci’s limited warranty covers only defects that affect the structural integrity or performance of the cue for a period of one year. Cosmetic imperfections, minor flaws, and warpage are not covered.
- Craftsmanship Notes: While Meucci cues like the FR-1 are crafted with high-quality materials, there have been reports of inconsistencies in craftsmanship. Recent models may sometimes exhibit cosmetic variations, such as differences in color saturation, minor inlay misalignments, or irregularities in finishing. Additionally, some cues have thicker-than-standard butt ends, making them incompatible with some cue cases. Variations in joint size have also been reported, which could impact the fit of future shaft replacements and/or create points of weakness below the joint that are more susceptible to breakage under stress.
