What players cues would you own?

So if you had to pick three players cues to own what would you choose? Not talking about works of art, chosen strictly for how they play. Ivory joint and ferrule, wrap no wrap, how would you kit it out?

For me:

Joel Hercek
Southwest
Cognecenti
 
When I get my new Hercek, I am sure it will go to the top of my short dream list which becomes realized.

I don't play as much as I used to, so perhaps it may be time to thin out my collection of cues just a bit...

12mm tips Ivory Ferrules Black lizard or Black Leather Wrap. 60 inch cues, 30 inch butts and 30 inch shafts with Ivory Joints, wood to wood big pin (3/8 x 10 or 3/8 x 11). Thankfully I have one of the 3 on my list.
 
Orlandi: Linen wrapped house cue conversion.
Schuler: With a pro taper shaft.
Bludworth: Linen wrapped four pointer.

I'm kidding. I don't follow actual games much because they aren't televised much anymore. I know a few players names mostly because of the pre-pool ban on tv.

I would like to have a Chicago style cue done in a light birdseye maple forearm, zebra wood stained red points and ivory clone boxes...
 
Interesting

While I currently have 3 cues which I could list as stand alone players cues. I will make this a wish list of what I would desire as you have stated. As a caveat, I will list 3 Originals I would like and 3 Previously Made Cues which I have experienced playing with.

Original(New)
Tascarella-Ivory Joint, Leather,Ivory Ferrules
Barry Szamboti-Ivory Joint, Irish Linen, Ivory Ferrules
Joel Hercek-Ivory Joint, Leather, Ivory Ferrules

Previously Made
1984-1989 Joss West- Stainless Joint, Irish Linen, Micarta Ferrules

Tascarella

I'm having Travis at Blackcreek make me a full splice with a 5/16 -14 Ivory that should be pretty great too.
 
I have 2 of my 3 already
1-Ebony South West
2-Maple WW,I was looking for a Runde R1,couldn't find one so I took a flier on this cue for $200 and it turned out to be one of the best buy's I have made.
3-Either a Searing or Tucker,but i think I will find the Tooth Fairy of a Unicorn first!LOL:p
