I tried calling this Morning.And I got the message.(taking no calls. I hope things are good for you or get better soon. I would like to take time thanking you in advance for everything involved in looking at the pictures. I have seen several Szamboti's- blue bk has this style cue in it.and on the back cover. I saw several of Hawaiian Brian's Szamboti's in Hawaii over the years. The seam is almost unsee able, its almost 22oz. Both shafts 3.9. It plays with ease,the ivory ferrules sing. Balance was like 17 1/2 inches from the butt. All the pts are perfectly aligned, 1/8 short from 3 inches to the SS joint. the finish is cloudy. If it is Gus's -I'd like to get it refinished,by you Sir: best wishes Mark and Sarah
