McDermott recently introduced a new more affordable line of performance shafts called G-Core Shafts. They are a good quality shaft with some impressive technology. They are a solid maple shaft, except for the tip end of the cue. From the tip and 8 inches back the cue has a multilayer construction that includes a layer of carbon fiber. The result is a unique cue that is 1 solid piece of wood and still provides more predictable deflection and cue ball squirt. These cues also are available in different shaft diameters. A big plus that the other performance shafts do not offer. More details are available in our pool cue accessories/performance shafts section

Performance shafts of all makes can be found here. The performance shaft selection and technology has improved a great deal over the past few years. You can also find extra shafts for most major cue brands. A comprehensive guide for choosing the correct shaft with your cue is available.
