Description
The 1066 Billiards Earl 006 is a premium 2-piece ash snooker cue built around a classic 58″ playing length. With an 18.5oz weight and 19″ balance point, this cue offers a well-established set of proportions for players who prefer a traditional-length cue with a stable, positive feel through the stroke.
Its 19″ balance places a useful amount of presence towards the front of the cue, complementing the 18.5oz overall weight without making the Earl 006 feel excessively heavy. The slightly fuller 30.3mm butt provides a substantial grip in the hand and contributes to the cue’s composed, secure feel during delivery.
A 9.5mm tip gives the Earl 006 a versatile setup for snooker, while the selected ash shaft provides the natural feedback and visual grain associated with traditional snooker cue construction. An individual 8-slice butt design finishes the cue and gives it its own character within the Earl range.
Cue Features
The Earl 006 combines selected ash with a 2-piece centre-joint construction, providing an option for players who want easier transport and storage without stepping down to a basic 2-piece cue. The centre joint is designed to retain a connected feel throughout the cue, allowing the Earl to perform as a serious playing cue rather than simply offering convenience.
At 58″, the Earl 006 sits at a traditional snooker cue length and provides a familiar setup for a wide range of players. Its 18.5oz weight, 19″ balance point and 30.3mm butt work together to create a confident, steady feel, particularly for players who appreciate some forward presence as they deliver the cue.
The detailed 8-slice butt construction adds individuality to the Earl 006 and complements the traditional appearance of its ash shaft.

Why Choose the Earl 006?
For players who prefer familiar snooker cue proportions, the Earl 006 offers a particularly versatile combination. Its 58″ length and 18.5oz weight sit comfortably within the range many players look for, while the 19″ balance point introduces a more forward feel that helps the cue remain settled and controlled throughout the stroke.
The 30.3mm butt will also appeal to players who prefer a slightly more substantial grip rather than an especially slim handle. Combined with its selected ash construction and centre joint, the Earl 006 provides the practicality of a 2-piece snooker cue with the specifications and finish expected from a higher-quality playing cue.
