High Hand
Needing some bud Jones expertise. I built a custom Weighted S2 set. I had a bunch of $1s that I loved and decided to add SJ intercontinental $5s and $25s. I bought some from a vendor here, and when they arrived I immediately was confused as they do not feel anything like bj chips. They felt much more like Abbiati chips. I had a well used SJ $5 for reference, and the shine was even different. The $5 and $25 chips I received are much more matte in finish, and the sound is also way closer to my abbiati chips than it is to all my bud Jones weighted S2s and V7s. Lookswise the label is identical. All the chips I received appear to be mint.
Did Bj start using a different plastic in more recent decades, or does the shine and “Bud Jones” feel come with tons of handling?
