Not a Spain Blank
Chris,
This cue was not made with one of Burt's blanks. Burt made a few blanks with 5 veneers, some of those went to George Balabushka, very rare.
This cue was built with one of the square handles that Burt cut the inner points to accept 5 veneers. I used one of those handles of Burt's and built the nose and veneers and then turned it round. Definitely not a finished blank like you have. To date, I've never finished one of Burt's blanks.
