    Looking for cue ideas

    You will get a lot of thoughts and ideas on what cue to get. It depends on how long you wish to wait. JR or John Bender can probably both build you a cue in under a year and I'd guess quite a bit under a year and they both make sweet cues.You could also just watch the for sale listings and if...

    Southwest

    OK, lets say Southwest for easy math builds 100 cues per year and they have been building them 30 yrs, that is actually only 3000 cues. Lets say Barry makes 25 if he does 30 yrs thats 750 cues. They will be a rarer cue how ever with proposed ivory issues they maybe limited to the USA. The...

    Is the Cue Market Dead Now and Forever?

    Another thought with the emphasis on ivory it will probably affect some of the past and future construction and sales.

    Is the Cue Market Dead Now and Forever?

    I think the market for the hard to get cues, Szam, Hercek, Southwest, Searing is still good. Granted the dollars are harder to come bye but these guys are in short supply. I am 57 yrs old and I'd probably be blind before I could get a cue from any of them if not dead. Still finding someone...

    Honest questions about cues..

    Vikingpitbull If you think all custom cues look the same search under my name (ak-stick) and search Hercek. Not your standard design. Many people how ever prefer more traditional designs.

    Honest questions about cues..

    I am sure you have been told by many here that most of the dollars spent on high end cues is due to the art and inlay work and material. You can actually find some decent bar cues that play very well. There are also some decent deals on some used cues here. You can also pick up some sweet...

    Hercek or Southwest

    To the ebony issue when I was placing my order with Southwest I asked that question and Laurie didn't have any ebony that she trusted. Nevada is a very dry climate and I have read in other posts that they may have had some issues with the ebony that they had, Laurie did tell me that she didn't...

    Hercek or Southwest

    Here is my dilemma my Hercek is a work of art that plays and probably won't appeal to many as it is a personal design, I waited about the same length of time for the Hercek as I waited for the Southwest and price ways it’s a wash. If it was a normal Southwest and I had/chose to sell one it...
