Heya, all.

I've got a couple projects in work, and willing to let this puppy go to fund them.

I got this cue from Si a month ago, and stole his pictures (since every one I've taken of the cue SUX). I gotta get some of those little green thingies...and a camera that's worth a damn.

This is a phenomenal looking and playing cue. The inlay work is outstanding. The BEM is CRAZY figured. It's balanced well, plays VERY well, and has a definite "Tad-ish" look to it.

In the spirit of full disclosure, the metal rings in the buttsection can be felt. I asked Leon about it, and I'm told it's a matter of expansion/contraction. Not a big deal, and can be easily rectified, I would think. Obviously, it has no bearing on how the cue plays or looks...but I want to be up-front about it.

Specs:

Butt Section weight: 15.75oz
Shaft 1: Predator 314-2, 12.72mm, 3.5oz
Shaft 2: Sly, 12.92mm, 4oz, Juma ferrule
Pin: 3/8x10
Joint: Juma

Straight, solid, and sound. Really fun cue to play with.

PRICE: $OLD !!!

Wow! it's too bad you have to let this baby go but I can relate to your situation. This cue is absolutely gorgeous and someone needs to steal it quick...as that person will be very lucky to own this beauty. Sly's cues are made exceptionally well but more importantly they are a players player and perform very well...I can attest to that. :thumbup:

GLWYS!

Best,
Mo

I AM adorable, huh?

:D :D

I've received multiple PMs about the same thing - so here's a minor update:

I don't know if the cue has a weight bolt in it or not. I'll dig around for some tools, and try to find out.

Perhaps Leon can answer that question here???
 
PRICE DROP!! SOLD!! :)

The bumper is secured by an Allen screw, and I don't have the proper sized key to take it out. So...still no clue about whether or not the cue has a weight bolt.

Weight with Shaft 1: 19.25oz
Weight with Shaft 2: 19.75oz

Simply ask Sly @410-827-4966 If it has the rubber bumper with threads it is the same as Mike Cochran's weight system. With this system the balance can be adjusted. Leon knows what tool is required. glws

This Sly fellow sure makes some nice cues. Always tasteful. Off subject but does anyone know where those cue holding green things can be had?
 
Up to the front from Page 8.

Price dropped again...and I'm motivated to sell/partial trade it.

SOLD.
