Reproduction (Liscotti's) Balabushka

[DunnM1]

So I am having Jerry Rauenzahn make me a reproduction of (Liscotti's) Balabushka.

Thanks Dean for putting it all together!

Nice choice! Liscotti's Bushka is one of my all time favorites...you're gonna love the -R- experience. He treats his customers right! :thumbup:

It's so great Dean does these cue projects......it lends an extra dimension when others join in and then we get to see a variety of cue designs from the same cue-maker but with the same general Balabuhska theme.

Thanks Dean for this project....to Jerry R. for offering to do this......and especially DunnM1 for sharing progress photos of his cue build.

p.s. Dean...any plans to do an Ed Prewitt cue project?.......Hey now....don't fault a guy for dreaming.

Liscotti cue ...
Did George build Him a cue,
OR is it the BUSHKA He won from the Miz???
I remember reading some where Larry beat the Miz in a gambling match"
and got the Miz' bushka
just wondering,
BUT
Jerry will make an awesome cue,
His work and service are great

Larry actually won the cue from Mizerak playing 3 Cushion Billiards (See letter from Jimmy Fusco on the below thread):

You are going to love your new cue...wait till you see the butt sleeve in person! You got a great cue at one heck of a price!!! I was at the Worlds 14.1 in 1976 in Asbury Park when Larry beat Steve with that cue! Great choice my friend!
