How would he know if the cue would play the same? The cue was altered dramatically by a different maker negating the cues original hit. Could it possibly have retained a good hit after the work?, sure, but there is no way to tell that until after the work is done. It was done because of the roll in the butt which MAY even have been normal and to make it "purdy" again. As for the roll, I guess we'll never for sure know now will we.
Second, to do this with a very rare and desireable "collectable" worth big $ without using the original shop is just, well lets just say I'd like to keep my comments kid proof.:wink:
As far as the OP saying he may eventually send it back to SW, well I'd bet dollars to doughnuts he'd be out of luck because they prabably would refuse to work on the Frankencue then put their name on it.
For the record, I'm glad he's happy. It's his cue. But that dont make me cringe any less...
