Great new Video tour of Schon Cues factory

Really cool!

Out of curiosity, has the current Schon style (wood tones, round points, usually no color flash besides turquoise) always been their signature?
 
to me it was more of walk thru with bad sound. if you've ever been in a good maker's shop there is nothing new here.
For me it was the cue designs I have never seen, especially the no wraps. Was great to see the lack of turquoise.Sadly their prices have gotten a little insane lately.
 
I'll just say this...if I'm going to spend the money to buy a Schon, I'll find a Clarke or Runde to spend it on.

Also, I give this youtube channel an "A" for ambition, and getting into a lot of cool places (like the Schon factory), and securing interesting interviews (like Buddy Hall). My biggest critique is that it always seems like he's just winging it, and has no kind of preparation or plan.

What a waste of 20 mins…..I couldn’t do the full 51:42 mins…..it was so friggin’ boring listening to inane conversation
that was so pointless & uninteresting I had to start fast forwarding before I fell asleep. I wouldn’t order a new Schon cue
just based on this video. There’s no zest, passion, love of cue making expressed anywhere in this ho-hum walk around
the shop tour sans any emotional connection with building cues, catalog or custom. It looked like the shop was getting
ready to be sold and you were going on a tour of what is included. I think the video needs to be done again but inject
some emotional connection building the best cues possible. Bob & Terry would wince and cringe watching this video.

I am sure Evan would have a lot to say. We don't need a new video. That video told us all we need to know.

I will agree that the video and production of it was second rate.
 
I was pumped to watch this as i loved these cues back in the day but jesus the sound was impossible to listen to lol I couldn’t make it through it.
