About 3/4 the way down in this post, there is a scan of an ad for Tyler cues. The cue on the left looks like it has the same joint. Tyler cue post

Could also be a Tyler out of Canada. Collab between Falcon(Ernie Chen) and Joss(Dan Janes).

Points look too wide to be Runde, IMHO.

Brown stitch should place it as an S series which predates the R series.

I just picked this up at a pawnshop in Northern Idaho. The signature kinda looks like is says Gracio. It definitely starts with a cursive G. Large brass 3/8x 11 pin with a dimple. The buttcap and joint ring almost looks like it was made with carbon fiber. The shaft collar is not the same...

I have the same model F. Very solid hitting cue. That’s super cool to see a guy with e same cue for 50 plus years.

I think those were made by Adam if I recall correctly.

No idea. I can’t seem to find another one with the same wedge inlay. I feel like the inlay materials and the joint are the same, so I would think it is stock. It does have a rather lovely nose on the 5/16x18 pin.

Here are some better pics of the joint and the ferrules. Everything looks right for a stock shaft from 93 to me. One thing I just thought of, there was a great shop here in Gresham, Billiards N Bagels years ago. Jim Oswald had an impressive selection, upwards of 50 different cue makers cues...

So you are saying this is a CX?

Highly unlikely. Generally when a collar is swapped onto a new shaft, the pilot does not go with the collar. Schon has a very distinct linen sleeve over the pilot. I had a 30” stitch ring shaft with a micarta ferrule years ago, so I know that Bob and eventually Evan would do such things...

I believe that is the sea turtle print. I have the same one.

I picked this up the other day as I play snooker once in a blue moon and the cue was pretty cheap. What is interesting is the joint pin. I haven’t had a chance to use it yet, so I have no idea of the hit, but the delrin pilot is interesting. I searched high and low on the webs but I could...

I picked up a 93 Schon LTD last month, a rather simple LTD, that came with two shafts. Both Shafts have the logo in the joint collar. One of the shafts is 31”, is a full 13mm and plays surprisingly well. I’ve had half a dozen or so Schons over the years, an old R-6 and an old R-10 among them...

I don’t think I’ve seen brass rings in a Taiwanese cue. The pin is a short 5/16x18.
