M.A.’s Smoke House Manager Buddy Williams has a wealth of knowledge about cigars, pipes and tobacco. He’s always willing to share that knowledge with fellow enthusiasts who come into the shop or call on the phone. In this feature we call “Ask Buddy,” we share some of the most common questions that customers ask Buddy along with his expert answers.
Welcome to Ask Buddy – your questions answered by our resident cigar expert!
What happens if my pipe stem breaks?
There’s nothing more disappointing to a pipe smoker than dropping his pipe only to pick it up and find the stem broken. When this happens you have to have an entire new stem made, which is expensive and can take a while.
If you’re prone to drop your pipe, we have a new solution for you that will save you money and time.
We’re now offering the “Jobey Link,” a brand of pipes that features a screw thread system allowing for easy replacement of broken pipe stems. If you break your stem, you simply order a new one and screw it into place.
We carry four styles of Jobey Links, ranging in price from $75-$90.
Come on in and we’ll help you choose the Jobey Link that’s right for you!
