Hi Folks,
I posted in the for sale section and someone there recommended I try here.

There was a Joe Callaluca SP for sale a while back, that is the same color as my SP that needs a little TLC, and I would like to "fancy up" a little.
There is a orangy-brown butt cap and joint, with black and white rings.
I have a guy locally that can and will do the work for me, but he doesn't have that color phenolic for the butt cap or joint.
Can anyone help? PLEASE!!??

If you are interested in helping and need a visual, you can search for Joe Callaluca and on the 2nd page of the results (as of this evening) you will see the SP that was for sale, to get an idea of the color of phenolic that I am interested in.

Thank you all! Any/All help is greatly appreciated!!!!!:smile:

Feel free to post an answer or PM me.
Thanks again, Eric.
 
Would this be the color your looking for?

YES!!!
That's EXACTLY what I'm looking for.
Do you have any?
Do you know anyone who will spare a butt cap and joint?
Pretty please!

I only have dark brown. You might want to get ahold of Joe since he uses it or maybe even send the cue to him for the TLC.
 
Cool!!!

You know.....I kinda like that orange!!!
If someone had that, that would be pretty badass!!!
Anyone?
 
Yes, it looks all enhanced. But I've seen and played with this cue and the Orange Colour is nothing I have seen in any cue. It is really bright, almost Neo-Orange in colour.

That stuff is a brighter orange than normal but I do believe that the camera and Photoshop had something to do with it. All of the colors in that cue are really enhanced and rather un-natural looking. I remember when that picture was posted by Kam and I thought that then.

I remember that cue from a while back. IIRC that joint is made from a 5 ball.
 
That could be from flat stock LE phenolic. I use it a lot, here is one joint ring. It's not as light as in this pic. More like the Callaluca.

What I use is

The nautral brown linien phenolic from Atlas billiards.You may want to change all of it in your cue to match better as it will darken with age.Good luck with your project.
Joe Callaluca
 
Joe is right...it only gets that color with age. The natural that Atlas sells now doesn't turn as deep as the older stuff. Here is a pic of some of the older natural I have...it only gets this color with years of age. If I had to make a new shaft today...it'd be way more tan & may never match.
