{"product_id":"viking-smartshops-ss-0326b-march26-limited-edition-pool-cue","title":"Viking SmartShops SS-0326B — March 2026 Limited Edition Pool Cue","description":"\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe Viking SmartShops SS-0326B is a limited production cue — only 50 made worldwide. Released exclusively through Viking SmartShops dealers in March 2026, this cue pairs East Indian Rosewood with Curly Maple in a combination that's as rare as it is striking. Once this run sells out, it's gone permanently.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eAt $400, the SS-0326B delivers materials and craftsmanship you'd expect to pay significantly more for. The East Indian Rosewood forearm brings deep, rich grain with natural warmth and density. The Curly Maple butt sleeve provides the clean, figured contrast that makes this cue stand out on any table. Black, Maple, Brass, and Rosewood joint rings tie the two woods together with a refined, layered look that reflects Viking's decades of cue-making experience in Middleton, Wisconsin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eUnder the hood, Viking's ViKORE Performance Shaft delivers a low-deflection hit with consistent feedback and minimal cue ball squirt — a meaningful performance upgrade over standard maple shafts. The Tiger Everest Laminated Tip is one of the most respected tips in the industry, offering superior grip on the cue ball, excellent spin transfer, and long-lasting durability. The Viking Quick Release Joint makes assembly and breakdown fast and secure. The Double Pressed Irish Linen wrap absorbs moisture during play and provides a smooth, traditional feel that serious players rely on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThis is a collector's cue that plays like a competition cue. If you've been looking for a step up from mid-range maple and want something you won't see anyone else carrying at your pool hall, the SS-0326B is it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"text-text-100 mt-3 -mb-1 text-[1.125rem] font-bold\"\u003eSpecs\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"[li_\u0026amp;]:mb-0 [li_\u0026amp;]:mt-1 [li_\u0026amp;]:gap-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eModel:\u003c\/strong\u003e SS-0326B\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMSRP:\u003c\/strong\u003e $400\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Limited — 50 units worldwide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eForearm:\u003c\/strong\u003e East Indian Rosewood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eButt Sleeve:\u003c\/strong\u003e Curly Maple\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eJoint Rings:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black, Maple, Brass, and Rosewood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWrap:\u003c\/strong\u003e Double Pressed Irish Linen\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eJoint:\u003c\/strong\u003e Viking Quick Release\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShaft:\u003c\/strong\u003e ViKORE Performance Shaft\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTip:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tiger Everest Laminated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAvailable Weights:\u003c\/strong\u003e 18–21 oz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty:\u003c\/strong\u003e Viking Lifetime Warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Viking","offers":[{"title":"18 ounce","offer_id":47724494127278,"sku":"SS-0326B-1","price":400.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"19 ounce","offer_id":47724494160046,"sku":"SS-0326B-2","price":400.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"20 ounce","offer_id":47724494192814,"sku":"SS-0326B-3","price":400.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"21 ounce","offer_id":47724494225582,"sku":"SS-0326B-4","price":400.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0649\/1121\/2718\/files\/SS0326B_Web_Tile__36118.webp?v=1772979351","url":"https:\/\/cue-pros.com\/products\/viking-smartshops-ss-0326b-march26-limited-edition-pool-cue","provider":"Cue Pros","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
