What a Great cue,Love the look,also the ringwork Looks great. Can u Tell please a little bit about the playability , quality of the shafts, taper,...
Thx for Sharing!
All the best from gerrmany, maik
 
Specs are as follows...(Translated using google translate...)

12 points (6 maple and 6 snakewood) into ebony with mother of pearl inlays in points. Brown lizard skin wrap. Blue Titanium joint pin 3/8x11.

Silver inlays in traditional Tibetan diamond motif with mother of pearl dots. Silver inlaid rings in the Zen signature style at A,B,C,D,E.

2 shafts one is a 'Chinese' taper. the other is 'American' style. LBM ferrules.



Taken it out for one test-drive so far.... balance and hit feel fantastic, I need to hit a lot more racks before I can give any detailed review but I'm pretty sure I've found my player!!!!

Awesome cue :smile::smile::smile:

Bob, glad you found your cue. I saw a few examples of Zen's work at SBE (at Chady's booth); they were spectacular.

Glad you found a cue you like Bob and you definitely can't go wrong with a Zen! Says alot about Zen cues since I know you had alot of good cues to chose from cos on the day you were there I was told they had a whole bunch of new cues that just arrived.
 
On another note, I can always help with the pictures...you just need to send it my way ;) ;)

Glad you found what you want. Cue is beautiful.

If you are still in the buying mood, I saw a James White 6 point cue and a 2003 Southwest plain jane for sale in Shanghai yesterday.

Although it would have made the perfect groundhog day! ;););)

Congrats on a fantastic cue. When I was able to be at the Zen booth at this year's SBE, I was very impressed with both the cue and the cuemaker. (Sorry I don't know his name) A lot of class.

Haha good to hear the visit paid off.
You're actually very lucky to have found a ZEN cue in their shop, ZEN Cues are almost never in stock. I see that you have a Chinese Pool Taper on one of your shaft...that means you have to play some Chinese Pool soon...hehe
