My friend just bought a Lucasi and it looks almost exactly like a Schon. the only difference is the height of the points on the inlays. kinda neat. but the shaft sux, get a predator shaft and it will make you more happy. upgraded cue? or more parts.... hmmm, i went for the Cue because my John Guffy sucked. but now its time for the bodykit baby! And i try to only play 9, its almost impossible to run an 8 ball rack.
