Hey guy-
I almost picked up that White at the 2006 Super Billiards Expo. I had a pretty fancy cue that I had toyed with trading for this one. Five pointer, no? Lacewood burl? Man! I love that cue.

And the Tascarella. Did that come from Pete or did you buy it on the secondhand market? I only ask because a friend had a similar Tasc that he sold maybe a year or two ago. Great looking cue and it played like a dream!

My player. An '05 amboyna Mottey. I've never hit with a cue that had a nicer feel than this. (Although the rosewood one to the right was a very close second! :D )

yes, the white is redwood lace burl (if i remember correctly) and it is a five pointer. still new and unchalked. i don't think i even screwed the shafts onto the butt! the wood is unbelievable in person.

the tascarella came from another az'er. unfortunately the wrap is so smooth i can't play with it even tho it hits great. it's like playing with a wrapless cue. so that one will be going.

That White butt sleeve is so figured and pearlescent it almost like like pearlized plastic from the older days! I'll bet it is drop dead gorgeous.

Hey Ray-

DEid you get that Bluegrass from Joel (aka thingie)? I had the exact same cue for a while and was just wondering if this might be the same one. Silver, sycamore, and black rings. Monster cue! I really regret letting go of that one.

The Tascarella looks like one I sold to vinniebabarooch a while ago. It was an exceptional playing cue.
