I wish, I would own it. LOL.
Yes, the cue is all original SW.
My guess would be $3500-$4000. That would be my guess as to what it would sell for on ebay....
southwest
that cue would be more in the 5000 to 6000 dollar range in my opinion

Beauty..... $5K plus 
That is probably the nicest South West I have ever seen. The fancy ones are great but.. This one is outstanding.
Too bad you had to sell it the first time. Hopefully it was a better reason than getting a quick buck. That cue is the definition of KEEPER!
If I find - it would have a permanent home...

I've got 20 shafts that will fit either one of them
I'm surprised the inlays/matching pred shaft would increase the value that much! Its a great looking cue don't get me wrong. I just figured the inlays and predator shaft would increase the value another $1000-$1500... but $4500 increase? really?! Damn! inlay work on SW are either REALLY expensive, or REALLY RARE! or of course both.
What does SW charge for inlay work these days? Is it even offered?
I would think most cuemakers would charge an additionnal $300-$500 for inlay work like this. It would be interesting to see the original invoice for this cue. GL finding it!

I might be wrong, but I don't believe you can get an inlaid S/W anymore. That fact, and the likelihood the inlays in this cue are one of one makes me think $4500 is way low. I still say $7500.....if you could buy the cue. More than likely it is unobatinium.
I was saying an INCREASE in value from the $2500-$3000 range to the $7500 mark. I don't know SW's well enough to give definitive answers for value. I'm sure you know Waaay more than I do regarding the pricing of this cue. It's impressive nonetheless. Wonder who did the inlays. When did they stop inlaying cues?
I know a guy that has one from Jerry that has inlay and Scrimshaw in it as well. But like I said that was before he had passed away. But I did see other with inlays as well but I have no idea of when they were made,,<ED
I think the days of inlays ended shortly after Jerry Franklin's death. Someone more versed in S/W history can fill us both in, but I seem to remember one of his kin-folk was responsible the inlays.
Last I talked to Laurie about it there is no more inlay. Thats the first traditional 6 point cue I have ever seen with inlay. I don't have a clue what it would sell for but my guess is if a dealer gets his hands on it it will be close to what the top end numbers here are. The Pred shaft doesnt have much to do with it.
The last few inlaid traditional fancy SW's I have seen had asking prices in the five figure range.
