Info on Cue

[Dave38]

I have a vintage McDermott cue that looks to be the E-H2 model, but the E-H2 in the McDermott archives do not have the tulipwood rings at the joint. Having trouble finding any info about this cue, mainly approx. value. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Dave

I could be completely wrong, and you may know this, but McDermott will customize anything. Why someone would add something to that cue escapes me but who knows. Couple maybe 3 hundo based on condition I'd guess.

McDermott got back to me, and it is an early run of the E-H2 model, so not many were made with the tulipwood ring compared to the later models, therefore not rare, but not as plentiful,
I have only seen 2 of these posted for sale internet-wide, and 2 in person.

Interesting....looks like a nice piece of wood though.
