The H552 is built with Michigan Maple and stained Black. The handle really sets this cue apart using a rich Cocobolo wood. McDermott’s new H-Series cues addresses this problem with the first ever cue to features the fully-adjustable Variable Balance Point (VBP) weight system. This system features a full-length carbon fiber core with a rail on which the weights can be re-positioned forward or backward. Comes standard with a G-Core shaft and a lifetime warranty that includes warpage.
