$1150.00 (ditto)
I have had many, many custom cues and I finally found the one. I use a Predator Revo. I know you mentioned you didn't want Predator, but hell if it plays great why would you want something else. Mine cost $899.
i have been wanting to buy a merry widow south west
i expect to pay around $3000
if barry is in the mood,i will paty him about $9000 for a bushka looking cue
but i am thinking investment
larry vigus makes really great hitting cues,i ordered a box cue from him for $3000
but to be honest,i have investment in mind here too
if i were to buy a cue with the idea of keeping it and playing with it forever
and investment meant nothing
i might be perfectly happy with a larry vigus,maple cue,it plays as good as any in the world
at least any but a south west
i have played cheaper cues that play great too
schon is sure hard to beat

Coos Cues
I like my cues like I like my woman.
When I take them out in public I don't want people "knowing" them.
Not necessarily more expensive. Just not ordinary. Don't want to hear about who else used to have that exact cue.
My cue, my woman.

$4-5,000 for a previously owned cue.........$6-7,000 if a cue was being custom built for me.
It would not have to be a design as fancy as the cues I own but the cue must have points,
veneers, simple forearm inlays and the same for the sleeve. If the cue wasn't going to be
a full splice design,the cue would have to have rings......and everything ivory (ferrules,
big pin flat ivory joint & butt cap). Like I wrote,the design doesn't have to be fancy but for
what my budget is, the cue-maker's design has to be a lot more than just a player design.

So, nobody but a skilled race driver should buy a Porsche or a Ferrari?
Definitely, to each their own.
