Very true... it is simply impossible for the extremely small staff to do things like refinish, etc. A top-quality refinish from a skilled cuemaker does nothing to hurt the value of a cue, imo. I realize that "original" condition is preferred, but on cues that were actually PLAYED with (not...

I emailed Laurie at SWC a few months ago... she said SW is not accepting any refinish work, at this time... see attached email...

To the best of my knowledge, those cuemakers build CF shafts from tubes acquired from other sources... probably higher quality than many other CF shafts, but still outsourced. I have a Barnhart CF shaft... amazing quality, but he did not build the carbon fiber tube... Again, I was just...

Thanks Kenny... I am not actually looking for a CF shaft... I play with standard maple... but I have 3-4 CF shafts, already that I don't use. I was just curious if any CF blanks were built in the USA, and not overseas.

I am not up on carbon fiber shafts, other than Predator, Jacoby, etc. I know several cuebuilders build some custom, but every one of them that I know uses CF blanks from overseas. Other than Rhino, most "known" CF shafts seem to be in the $350-450 range. I was curious if there are some CF...

What carbon fiber shafts are totally made in the USA... not from blanks made overseas, etc??

Very nice, Eugene... already sold??

Sold... thanks!!

I agree with FatBoy, 100%. REALLY sweet cue, but there are several of them. Great playing cue, really beautiful craftsmanship.

I ordered a few from them.. thanks for the link..

I use the Japanese G2 Hard as my playing tip.. I like that tip a lot... I was just curious. It is rare to see a USA knockoff of a Japanese or Chinese product...

Beautiful cue... Kenny was a Master Machinist in the US Navy for many years... he was an outstanding cuebuilder... Great price!!

I see that one source offers "G2 USA" tips.. Are these legit, or just a "knock-off"? Has anyone tried the "G2 USA" tips? If so, how do they compare to the original Japanese model?

I like the G2 Hard a lot...

It is the only one I know of... it is certainly the only one Cory has ever built. I really like the way it plays...

I am playing with one now. I bought a 5A torrified Ash shaft blank from Prather, and Cory Barnhart finished it for me. Hit is subjective.. I did not like the way it played with a medium Everest tip on it, so I put a hard G2 tip on it, and it is very responsive... it feels close to maple, in...

Double-posted... please delete..

Sold.... Thanks!!

Are Ultraskin tips no longer available? I have seen different statements regarding Tom Hay... some that he is ill, some that he has passed. I have also read differing reports that the tips were now to be offered by other parties. Does anyone know what is actually up with the Ultraskin...
