Always wanted an old Adam cue. Waited till I found one that caught my eye. Purchased this Blackstone cue off of the bay a few months ago. Came original with the green/black two-toned linen wrap. Rough over-all condition when it arrived. Finish worn, chips, scratches, shaft not playable and the wrap was unraveling. I knew I wanted it redone, but was torn regarding how to go about doing it.
Attempt to have the wrap salvaged..?
Have it re-wrapped to match the original..?
Re-wrapped with another material..?
Save shaft..?
New shaft..?
Anyways, decided that this cue is one that i'd be keeping so I I strayed away from the original look and went with one more my taste. A couple before shots of the cue (not great I know), and a few after shots. Completed by Mitchell Thomas from Missouri. New shaft made, re-finish and a black, stacked leather wrap. I thought it turned out great!
