Is there anyone better at installing a higher end leather wrap than Kenny Koo?

No disrespect meant towards any cue maker, I know lot's of guys do great work. I have heard so much over the last several years about how good Kenny is with wraps, I just wanted to know if he is considered the best

Thanks in advance for your answers :thumbup:
 
It is very difficult to label someone or thing as the single "best" in anything. There are lots of great cuemakers and repair guys out there that do outstanding wrap work. Kenny has certainly earned his reputation here and I can personally vouch for it. He put a lizard print wrap on a Scruggs cue for me and I could not see the seam. Only by him telling me did I know where it was. It was absolutely perfect. Are there others who can do the same quality work? I'm sure there is but for my money and peace of mind, I'll send any wrap work I need to Kenny.

Thanks for your input
 
He is the best in my opinion although the late Paul Fanelli was a master because he did not use any tools like the Wrap machine from Unique Products just free handed, Bushka style...

Kenny Murrell and Kenny Koo do the best work. I trusted them to wrap my southwest and other high end cues. I introduced Kenny Koo to Mika Immonen and he had an elephant ear wrap installed on his playing cue.

If you're looking to buy a cue with a leather wrap, I've not seen anyone do leather wraps better than Ernie. But you can disregard my answer if you are looking for someone to put one on your cue if it's not a Gina.

Yeah, no doubt. Ernie's wraps are incredible.

I have not seen Kenny's work. But Ernie from GinaCue, Steve Lomax and Mike Webb all do really good work. They were the leaders of recent years and a lot of us are getting close to their quality now.

Kenny Koo installed a real Lizard wrap on an older Black Boar. The workmanship was second to NONE. He is as honest as they come and I'm glad to be friends with him.


I have also had wraps installed by Mike Webb, Pete Tascarella and Dennis Searing. All were spectacular to say the least.

I held a George Balabushka original smooth leather wrap and it was truly incredible.

I think Kenny Koo Rocks! He's done 5 or six cues for me and his turnaround time was very reasonable.
