Question about different Woods?

[Rjmoncrief]

Hello Cue Makers!
I am wanting a Sneaky built and I have a question concerning the playability of certain woods.
I really love the look of a full BEM forearm and butt. My question is....is there a negative or downfall to this setup?
Would it be a solid cue or does it need to have a mix such as Bocote into BEM or Cocobolo into BEM. You get the idea.....
Feedback from some of the experts on here would be appreciated!
Thanks.....

Using birdseye in both the hanfle and forearm in a full splice cue will produce a light weight cue. If you want a cue around 19 ounce, you will get a better balanced cue if you make the handle out of a little heavier wood.

You can get what you desire with the woods you like. You would have to add veneers to separate the same woods otherwise the splice will be too subtle.
