I'm cleaning house and am making room for new things coming, so here are some sweet cues for sale. I need cash, I do not need any more cues, so no trades please! All prices include shipping and fees to conus. :D



1. Tim Scruggs plain-jane Birdseye Maple with genuine lizard (peanut color) wrap, 4 shafts, ivory (I think) Hoppe ring, custom jp's. The two thinner shafts with the BEM jp's are definitely Scruggs shafts, I suspect the two thicker ones with the black jp's with silver ring are not. All are awesome shafts. This cue is a player, has some very minor finish dings, nothing to the wood.
Piloted 5/16x14 Stainless Steel joint.
Butt: 15.45 oz, 29", straight
Shaft 1: Scruggs, straight, 29", 3.63 oz, 11.90mm, LBM ferrule, Moori tip
Shaft 2: Scruggs, straight, 29", 3.61 oz, 11.66mm, ivory ferrule, Moori tip
Shaft 3: Unkn, straight, 3o", 4.67 oz, 12.88mm, unkn ferrule, unkn tip
Shaft 4: Unkn, slight roll, 29", 4.11 oz, 12.95mm, ivory ferrule, unkn tip
Price: SOLD!!!

2. Joe Callaluca 'not-so-sneaky-Pete'. Joe's master craftsmanship into an amazing Mark Bear full-splice blank of highly figured Bocote into highly figured Birdseye Maple. Inlaid bocote into maple rings, matching custom jp's, Aegis joint and buttcap, aluminum radial pin. Sweet, sweet cue, great balance, super player. Almost new.
Butt: 13.76 oz, 29", straight
Shaft: 29", straight, 3.95 oz, 12.85mm, ivory ferrule, triangle tip
Price: SOLD!!![/B]

3. Richard Helmstetter: I'm not sure, but I think this is from the old Adams line. It appears to be rosewood points into a rosewood forearm with green and red veneers, mother of pearl inlays in the points and butt, signature "Helmstetter" between the points, stitch rings at joint and shafts. The cue is in good, decent, original condition with several surface blemishes, nothing to the wood. Old, solid. Shipped in a period box case.
5/16x18 piloted Stainless Steel joint
Butt: 16.92 oz, 29", straight
Shaft 1: 29", some roll, 3.73 oz, 12.70mm, unkn ferrule (ivory?), unkn tip
Shaft 2: 29", some roll, 3.64 oz, 12.88mm, unkn ferrule (lbm?), unkn tip
Price: now$175.00

4. Gulyassy-Samsara Jump Break Cue, deep honey stained maple with bocote rings. This is the cream of the crop of the Sledgehammer line, made by Samsara for Mike Gulyassy. This hard to find cue just breaks a ton and jumps with ease. No major dings or dents, just a couple very minor, hard to find surface blems.
5/16x14 piloted joint
Butt: 14.13 oz, 29", straight
Shaft: 29", straight, 3.96 oz, 13.00mm, phenolic ferrule/tip combo
Price: SOLD!!!

Nice bunch of wood my friend !!!

Nice cues Rayjay - Scruggs looks really interesting.

I have an old Helmstetter, nothing like the hit of these older cues.

Best of luck with your sale - nice stuff buddy as always.

Tommy :wink:
 
These are really nice cues that are priced right. If you're on the fence, make an offer...:p
