    my first pointed cue and my first wrap.

    Thanks KJ. I measured the wrap at .042 and cut my wrap groove at .045 to make it slightly lower, but i didnt account for the texture of the wrap to be sticking out when it was wrapped around. I cut a black leather wrap for practice and it fit slightly below flush. Next time i will cut it...

    what glue for leather wraps?

    I went with the weldwood contact cement, but im gonna try elmers on the next one. It turned out pretty good for my first wrap. I cut a practice wrap using a cheap leather one i had laying around, and it cut like butter, but this lizard skin was a pain! The blade kept wanting to walk and move...

    african blackwood vs ebony

    My African blackwood turned out black as night. To me, it hits as well or better than ebony. The main reason i tried it was because i read that they use it in musical instruments, so i figured it had to have some good tone to it. Joe

    Deluxe controller needed

    I have a similar controller and i thought it went bad. I replaced the controller, and it worked a while, then it started messing up again. Turned out the brushes were worn down. I turned em 180 degrees and its worked ever since. Just a thought. Joe
