agree, but that doesn't align with todays prices of a similar cue. @2000$. And to be clear, I feel 2000 is very cheap for such a cue. I am just curious what was different in the 70s that justified such a low price of $135/$600 for a cue? In summary, why were these cues so cheap back then...

Hi Hank, both of your example are 5x. That is similar to the math of $135 vs $600. It would be tough to make money today at 600$ for a cue as described. How were cuemakers in the 70s able to make money at the 135$ price? Again, I am sure I am missing an element beyond this calculation...

Hi Will, thanks for sharing the info about cue and case prices from the 70s. It seems that cue prices overall have outpaced inflation. If a 4 pointer with veneers was @135$ in the mid 1970s, accounting for rough inflation, that price would only be around 600 today. Richards site shows similar...

First one I got from Prather, that JMW finished in 2007. Still have it.

Its great to see the number of cuemakers doing FS w veneers. They have always been my favorite. I got my first blank from prather in 2005/2006 shortly after they started building them w veneers. At that time I was not aware of anyone else building them w sharp return points. Today there are...

very nice, thanks for sharing.

no idea how he gets them so sharp. Here is a close up of his compared to a prather and titlist. Quite a difference. The second picture is the top points of the rounceville and a titlist. The blanks are oversized and the points will be sharp once turned to size.

Nice. Is that one a rounceville blank?

Thank for sharing Greg. Yes he is the king of the hill. I will take some better pictures of his blanks in the sun light tomorrow.

Hello, I've always loved Full splice cues. I received 4 Rounceville blanks today, his work is incredible. Look at those return points! 4 Rounceville, a Prather and 2 titlist

2 recent transactions with him, both great.

Dennis was streamed on FB playing 3k a game last night giving up a big spot.

Looking for a scruggs or james white sneaky pete. The only requirement is a 13 mm shaft. Thanks, Ian

Hi Ken, I feel the cue turned out quite nice as well. Here are a couple pictures of the rings and the titlist blank I sent Pete. I purchased the rings and blanks from AZ members. This is my 6th cue from the Tascarella's, each one a great experience.

Just delivered from the Petes today. The blank was an unturned titlist and I provided the red rings. What else can you say about Tascarella, the best cues and even better people to deal with.

Looking for an oil rubbed sneaky pete. 13mm shaft. Thanks, Ian

https://www.azbilliards.com/person/earl-strickland/?pyear=2016 Doesn't look like he's played since 2016. It possible he played but didn't cash since 2016 but that seems unlikely to me. Ian

Still looking for cue...

Screws in. He provides a replacement bumper

I had Dang build one for my tascarella. The communication, service and product were all top notch. Ian
