Good looking related only, what kind of cues do you think are the ones?
I like the custom ones from Tsunami cues from the Philippines, made by Neil Galindo.
Also like the ones from Jacoby, maybe the best looking ones from a production series. What do you think?

Wow, that's a loaded question.
Beautiful cues, that list would be endless and Jacoby and the Philippine cue makers would not be on any of that long list to be quite frank, even in the "looks only" department.
I like a hodge podge of everything cue wise so there's no way for me to pin point favorite cue maker just by looks but some of the guys who always catch my eye are as follows: Bob Owen, Larry Vigus, Shelby Williams, Tascarella, Mike Durbin, Ron Haley, Ernie Guiterrez, Gus/Barry Zamboti, Tad, and the list goes on and on. Just wish the $'s would catch up with my wish list :p

Completely subjective. Some love ebony cues or tuxedo cues. Some like inlays, some like hundreds of inlays. Some like beautiful woods and simple designs. Some like traditional cues some don't. No right or wrong answer.
 
So many makers make beautiful cues. Even a lot of unknown makers have really pretty woods in their cues. To me the most beautiful cues I've seen were a Ed Prewitt, Tim Scruggs, Tonkin, and a Black Boar.

LOL - bunch of pretty shitty answers in here. Of course it is subjective - he didn't ask for a definitive undisputable answer. Just what people like.

Anyway, I like fancy ornate stuff. I got to see the Ronin by Jacoby at the SBE in 2018. To me, it's the most beautiful cue I have ever seen. All of his "Cue of the Year" creations are works of art.


I also think the Pechauer ones, under the "Award Winning Cues" are things of beauty.

Along the same lines, but a bit more affordable, I find the McDermott Cue of the Year cues stunning.

To add the comments about how it is really a matter of taste - I know lots of people lust over Southwest cues, Balabushka, "Titleist conversions" and stuff like that - I think they are all fugly personally.
 
I'd say Haley as a whole makes the best looking cues and a super nice guy, unfortunately I don't like the way they play. John Showman makes the best looking old school cues hands down
 
Yea Haley is way up there, plus the extremely low #s make a nice investment. I have heard the same about the play.

I think for traditional cues Tascarella makes incredibly beautiful cues.

I do not tend to like fancy cues at all.

Think Gina needs to be mentioned as one of the makers of the most beautiful cues.

Ned Morris cues are as great as anyone. Their "hit" is as great as any cues on earth. His workmanship is absolutely amazing. If you do not own one of his cues, you would not know. I do. I own 6 of his greatest cues. He is about the best I've ever seen. Ask Jay about his work? He owns a cue Ned Morris made and he'll never sell it. He calls Ned as great as TAD. Awesome! Grab one of his cues and you'll know too.
