Help With Wrap Color Please

[14.1'er]

Well, I am far from being color coordinated so I'd love to hear some suggestions.

I'm going to have a cue rewrapped, and have no clue as to what will look good. I'm not really sure what the wood is, but I think it's Macassar Ebony? If anyone is sure of the wood, I'd love to know.

Thanks in advance.

I'd suggest keeping it black. Less cleaning necessary.

Dark Purple

White with brown spec or dark brown leather . Nothing wrong with black leather or linen

 

[PhilosopherKing]

White/green linen or a textured leather very close in color to the short maple section.

 

[PhilosopherKing]

Looks like bocote.

 

[pooldawg8]

white/brown spec linen or white/black spec linen would look nice on that cue.

 

[Runner]

White with brown speck would be the nuts on that cue..:thumbup:

All black or traditional Cortland type white with green flecks.

I appreciate all the recommendations thus far. I also thought it was Bacote at first, but seems too dark brown/black. Whatever it is, it hits a ton and plays very much like my beloved Southwest that I had to part with. This one is not going anywhere!

The traditional wrap looks good with any wood....’cause it’s pool history

Looks like Kingwood.
White with brown specs get my vote as well.
Cork wrap would be killer too.

Ah, I forgot about cork....looks good on everything also.
....for some reason, I don’t like brown specks....I’ve replaced it on a couple cues.

Chocolate brown oil tanned Spanish bull.
Looks great, feels better, and lasts forever.

White w/ brown speck.

Also agree with Joey, grain and figure looks like Kingwood.

 

[Mkindsv]

Tan leather would look sharp as a tack on this

 

[cueman]

My guess is East Indies Rosewood. Light Brown with white speck Irish Linen if you can find it. Leather would open up a bunch of options.

All black or traditional Cortland type white with green flecks.

We agree 100%
