Interesting to see Morra's last three matches were against a 508, a 471, and a 524 Fargo.

I've never owned one but I always thought that pretty much everything I saw come out of their shop looked great. I think they had excellent taste in designs and wood combos.

Damn! I went to bed after Shane got up 4-0.

Would help to see the rest of the cue but pretty sure it's a B400 from 1981. Retailed for $400

Right, that's my point. Without that and just trying to get by on tournament cashes she'd have been back home a long time ago.

Probably true, but you can't blame them when you consider they're traveling all over the country chasing her dream, and even if she places high, it would be rare that expenses were covered.

This, or a Joss, or a steel jointed Jacoby.

I'll take the #1 slot.

That is one crazy twist it took coming back off that rail :oops:

You're right, because nobody would ever bet on the Jets :giggle:

That's a more than fair price IMO. Excellent players and a very nice cue maker if you ever have questions too. They tend to be a little chunkier in the handle area, just as an FYI.

Thanks guys. Kind of what I figured on it. What puzzles me though is the guy says he got it new with that shaft, but who knows. It is super clean for an "originals." I know what you mean on the whippy shafts. I used to sell Meuccis and played many of those shafts. Quite a few pros used them in...

One more try to see if anyone knows the model?

I think I may have found the maker. I see Boetzel cues with that red bumper and carving in the handle. I knew it was at least dating back to the 60s but seems like it could be even older.

I see the Sampaio stuff is made in Portugal. He was able to look it over last night and said that name wasn't carved in it, but it did say made in West Germany. Does that still track with it being a Sampaio?
