Cue was refinished by Proficient Billiards in September and has not been played since. Joint protectors are new from Southwest and are made of ebony since the Brazilian Rosewood is no longer available. They seem to match very well. The Rosewood is very dark and resembles ebony. The cue was made in 1990 before the Brazilian Rosewood ban (in 1992). It will come with an LOA that shows when it was made and should allow the cue to be legally sold and traded. This is a very rare wood and there weren't many of these made by Southwest.
Now asking Deal Pending I am willing to accept PayPal goods and services but your address must match what PayPal has on file.
I'd be interested in trades for a Ginacue, Szamboti (Gus or Barry), Josswest, another Southwest or possibly a high end Tascarella. I would consider partial trade and cash, even up or multi cue deals.
I can send videos of the cue upon request if you want to see how it rolls on my table or we can FaceTime.
Please reach out to me with any questions.
