Beautiful cue Michael. At first glance I thought it might be tulipwood, so when I read it was not I did a quick search.
I learned there is quite a difference in Narra and Bees wing Narra.
I've always liked the ebony and tulipwood combination but the Narra Bees Wing / ebony combination is stunning, in person it must really be special.
Well done!
Thank you very much.
Thank you
The World of wood is truly amazing.

I have a passion for purple heart. Such an insanely nice bit of wood. Sheened up right, I could get lost in those colours. From Glossy dark maroon, to a more matte lilac. It's the reason I fell in love with the Vigus I have. So glad I saw it in person before purchasing, otherwise I would have left it be. Luckily, I happened to be in TW and able to meet up with the seller. He was also honest, clearly passionate about the game and a lovely bloke. Which always helps

I like it myself but have to sell it due to a copay for surgery. I have it on ebay at the moment, if you know anyone interested in it. It's an older one but I don't think it was ever played that much it's that clean. Thanks!I have a passion for purple heart. Such an insanely nice bit of wood.

Sorry you have to let it go. Hope the surgery goes well!Did you get one finally, or are you still being angry about their website?

Hmmmm, I have to first sell a few cues....... But, then, yes, I will. You can't know exactly what you are getting, but at that price, its worth the gamble. Also, even if the newer ones are not so glossy, maybe I could fix that.....
Here are two that I made several years ago. I'm working on putting some stuff together to start making again. We'll see how it goes. These need to be refinished.

One is black palm butt and forearm with bird's eye maple handle and cocobolo and brass rings, the other is padauk? or osage orange, can't remember with tiger maple handle and cocobolo and brass ring work.
