The Action VAL28 Value Cue is a Action playing cue sold by Quarter King Billiards. It has a 5/16X18 joint and a 13.00mm classic wood shaft. It lists at $134, with free shipping over $98 and 30-day returns.

Description

The VAL28 is part of Action’s Value series, a wrapless playing cue built to a budget-friendly price. The VAL28 comes with a 5/16×18 joint, a 13mm classic wood shaft, a wrapless handle, and a white finish.

It’s a fit for a player who wants a personal cue without paying for a wrap they may not need. The color pairing does most of the work distinguishing one Value cue from the next, since the build stays the same. Expect to pay about $130 for the VAL28, which is currently in stock and ready to go. The VAL28 sits alongside dozens of other Action cues built to this same core spec.

straight stick.

It’s hard to find a straight cue stick, this stick is very straight, no wobble at all. Really lovely stick. Feels nice in the hand. Slides very easy no resistance what so ever. Will purchase again in the future. Looking for a solid 2 tone maple, light and dark wood 2 piece Dufferin, can’t find one anywhere. I bought one 25 years ago, can’t think of where. Any Idea’s?

Fantastic value

Truthfully, these Action VAL cues are an unbelievable bang for the buck. I am a perfectionist, and I can tell you that I could not find one single flaw on this stick – the fit and finish are flawless and it is arrow-straight with a nicely fitted tip. Also, the capability to change the weight with an Action Weight Bolt is a feature not found on most cues at this cost point. I plan on replacing all of my crummy house cues with more of this series.

Questions about this cue

What joint does the Action VAL28 Value Cue use?

It uses a 5/16X18 joint. That means any 5/16X18 shaft will thread straight onto this butt, so you can add a spare or upgrade later without changing cues. If you are matching a shaft you already own, check its pin against 5/16X18 before ordering — joints are not cross-compatible.

What shaft diameter is the Action VAL28 Value Cue?

This cue ships with a 13.00mm shaft. Thinner shafts put more spin on the cue ball and feel crisper through the stroke; larger diameters feel fuller and are more forgiving on off-centre hits. Neither is better — it comes down to how you like the cue to hit.

Is this a carbon fiber or wood shaft cue?

The Action VAL28 Value Cue comes with a Classic Wood shaft. Carbon fiber will not warp, ignores humidity and deflects less; quality maple gives the traditional feel a lot of players still prefer. Both play at a high level, so pick the one that matches how you want the cue to feel.

What is the Action VAL28 Value Cue built for?

It is set up as a playing cue. Playing cues are balanced for control on shot-making, break cues are heavier with a harder tip for power transfer, and jump cues are short and light to get the cue ball airborne. Using the right one also protects your playing cue from break wear.

What kind of grip does it have?

The grip is wrapless. Irish linen wicks sweat and stays tacky, leather is plush and premium, and a no-wrap finish is fast and needs no maintenance. If your hands run warm, linen is usually the safer pick.

Is Quarter King an authorized Action dealer?

Yes. We are an authorized Action dealer, so this cue is genuine and carries the full manufacturer warranty against warpage and defects in workmanship. Warranty claims go through us — you do not have to deal with the factory yourself.

How fast does it ship, and can I return it?

Shipping is free on orders over $98 in the contiguous US, $5.50 flat otherwise, and you get tracking as soon as it moves. Returns are accepted within 30 days of delivery on unchalked, unused product — contact us first for a return authorization so it is credited without delay.
