I played with a custom Schon cue for several years when I was in college (PSU). I bought it from Ed Matushonek up in PA. I really like that cue. I had "upgraded" from a Meucci, which I didn't like at the time.
Anyhow, enough about me, Schon cues are beautiful cues that play very good. I classify them as a high-end production cue. The term production cue is a bit misleading, though. They are built by Evan Clarke and a few other helpers. He has a number of standard designs, some limited additions and many unique cues. Schon cues have been around since 1981. They have a solid reputation. They do not make a lot of cues compared to large production cue companies like McDermott. Each cue is designed, finished and tested, personally, by Evan.
If you are looking for a cue in the $300 - $800 range, then Schon would be a good pick IMHO.
Where to buy Schon Cues:
I've searched and found some Schon cues for sale, listed on the right of this page. That is, also, a good place to view a variety of Schon cues to get a feel for his skills and to see the "market value" of his cues.
Otherwise, you can order a cue from Schon directly. There contact information is below.
Best of luck on your cue search.
Cheers,
Skippy
