Meucci 97-12 Pool Cue
The Meucci 97-12 Pool Cue combines traditional craftsmanship with subtle elegance. Featuring a smoke stained Birdseye maple forearm and four ivory-colored points with three veneers (orange, green, and black), it’s a cue designed to stand out without being overly flashy. The matching check design on the sleeve and collar of orange, green and black ties this design together.
The Meucci 97-12 comes with The Meucci Pro Shaft which is standard on all Meucci cues and offers a straightforward design for players who appreciate simplicity over hype. While this shaft doesn't feature advanced technology or high-density core materials, it provides a solid performance with its 14-inch pro taper, Ultra Skin Medium tip, and traditional polycarbonate ferrule. The Meucci Pro Shaft delivers a familiar feel without additional frills.

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 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.
