This is my cue. It is a Mali

That is from the S series which predates the R series. Good luck.

I was able to handle this cue in person at the Western BCA tourney that is currently going on in Oregon. That is a mighty nice cue.

Schmelke made blank in USA and finished in Japan. The three digit number stamped by the joint is a dead giveaway.
