Description

The Jacoby HB1 V2 (JCB2501) is a wrapless playing cue from Jacoby Custom Cues of Nekoosa, Wisconsin, made in the USA. The forearm and butt sleeve are wood, and a highly figured birdseye maple handle serves as the grip, so there is no separate wrap. Stitched index rings run between cocobolo and maple, the collar is black, and the butt plate is black with a Jacoby logo.

The shaft is Jacoby’s 29 inch Ultra Pro, a 12.75mm laminated shaft built from 140 veneer pieces, fitted with a Tiger Everest tip on a Hydex 202 ferrule. The joint is black phenolic with a radial pin, and a Jacoby weight bolt lets you adjust the weight; Jacoby gives the cue weight as 17.8 to 20 oz. Jacoby describes its HB collection as cored construction with a three point weighting system. A 12.75mm shaft is slightly slimmer than many playing shafts, which some players prefer.

Jacoby’s warranty covers all components for the life of the cue, excluding warpage and replaceable parts such as the tip, ferrule, finish, wrap and bumper. No extension, case or joint protectors are included.

Weight & Balance

This cue is offered in WBJCB, Yes. A lighter cue is easier to accelerate for a whippy, spin-friendly stroke; a heavier cue plants more solidly and drives the cue ball with less effort. Most players settle between 19 and 20 ounces.

This model takes a weight-bolt system, so the weight and balance point can be tuned after purchase. Adding weight toward the butt moves the balance rearward for a more planted feel; less weight shifts it forward for a livelier stroke. The balance point on a finished cue usually sits about 18 to 19 inches from the butt.

Questions about this cue

What joint does the Jacoby JCB2501 HB1 V2 Cue use?

It uses a Radial joint. That means any Radial 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 Radial before ordering — joints are not cross-compatible.

What shaft diameter is the Jacoby JCB2501 HB1 V2 Cue?

This cue ships with a 12.75mm 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 Jacoby JCB2501 HB1 V2 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 Jacoby JCB2501 HB1 V2 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 Jacoby dealer?

Yes. We are an authorized Jacoby 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. Because this one is over $600, a 10% restocking fee applies to the return.
