Hello All:

All I can say about this batch is: ERNIE MARTINEZ IS BACK!

General descriptions & other admin type stuff:

Ernie's Description: triangle tips; melamine ferrules; joint pins are my custom made brass 3/8-12; all taper work on shafts and butts are my original specs; all cues are marked with a serial number inlaid under the wrap using epoxy (can be seen by x-ray?) as well as written under the buttcap.

Each cue has matching ringwork at all locations (a, b, c, d, & e).

The shafts are 13mm, ask if you want them reduced (not less than 12.6mm), no charge.

Natural weights (low end) are listed w/each cue. Ernie can add up to 1 additional ounce to that weight. Just ask when you get in touch to complete the transaction.

Each cue has the complete unique description tied to each serial# with pictures.

Prices are listed separately with each serial#; does not include shipping costs.

Joint protectors, a protective sleeve & "Letter of Authenticity" will be included with each cue.

Payment will be made directly to Ernie's Business Manager. His info will be provided in the PMs to those that are in the queue. He accepts Visa & Master Card and money orders/cashiers checks only at this time.

IMPORTANT: Since the first on the list gets 1st choice of cues, 2nd on list gets next choice of remaining cues, etc., I urge you to please make your decisions as soon as possible and claim the serial number publicly so we can move this along as quickly as we can. Everyone has waited long enough.

Each cue will have its own Post.

Ernie, his Business Manager & I would like to thank you all for your patience and your support of Ernie. And here they are:

Here is the current list of 10: Good luck to all.

Viperkiller (selected 442)
8-ball Rat (selected 436)

439 has been corrected to read cocobolo wood in the points & buttsleeve, not ebony. Sorry. Nice coloring though ;).
 
I saw all these cues yesterday and as usual the workmanship is spot on. They look much better in person than a camera can convey.

That tulipwood plain jane is the nuts. The inlays in the inlayed cue look terrific close up.

Regards,

Doug
 
Martinez Cues

My favorite of this bunch is cue 442, I like the color contract of the wood and veneers.

Hello All,

I just heard from Viperkiler and he will be making his choice by tomorrow late afternoon. He is not by a computer so he hasn't been able to view them to make a decision. He apologizes for the delay.

OK, After him since no one else will step up. I'll take #444. Automatic transfer or paypal is fine.
