I found an older pic, see above

When I ordered my Coos Cue I asked for the blackest ebony John had. It’s as jet black as I’ve ever seen but it made my cue a bit heavier than I originally wanted but it looks and plays fabulously.

I’ve had two Victory softs delaminate. First thing I do when I get a Predator shaft is cut the tip off and get something else.

If I ever get another trip to Burbank I’ll head over to Cue Ball for some action

I’ve played a bunch on the piano black GC3. Not only does the GC3 suck but gloss black makes the table worse.

Gotta love the three giant beams supporting the slates. Is there a better built table?

I have both version Reno’s. I have no idea which one I’m using when I’m bent over shooting.

What joint is that? Cue looks very nice. I almost bought one years ago but passed on it.

I’m no expert BB person but the Valley table I recently played on was pretty good. Would I rather play on a Diamond, hell yes. Maybe a Valley with new Ridgebacks or something and tighter pockets or something similar would be nice.

Back when I was a kid I bought an aluminum cue🤣 Worst cue for the money category, Southwest. OMG it was like a broom handle. Can’t hardly believe that I’ve wanted one for 40 years and when I finally got one I absolutely hated it.

I’m at Red River right now eating some red fish. They have four Tournament matte black GC6’s in the middle of the room. They look nice but the fit and finish is not good. Pocket irons stick up a lot. Cloth install is hack worthy. Table plays good, very similar to a blue label Diamond. Yes...

Anyone from Marsh on AZ? I fly there regularly and would like to get the ley of the land better.

I completely agree. I’ve wanted an Anniversary for years but when it came to pulling the trigger on a table I knew the pocket style would drive me crazy. Unfortunately I had to sell my matte black GC4, which I like as much as a Diamond Professional. I know almost all the pool rooms that buy 9’...

Where’s the 1P action? I’ll be there Friday. Any Friday night tournaments around, in case I can’t get any 1P action.
