I've been doing this ever since I started using Kamui Black tips about a year ago. They play perfect right when you get them so replacing them often means nothing as far as getting used to a new one. I usually use a Kamui Black Medium or Soft as the SS wear too quickly for me.
Sorry for the late response! I hate that this forum doesn't notify you when someone posts on your threads. The cue was made in 1993. GentleBear I will give you a call tomorrow. Thanks for your patience and bump it up! -Jason
Very nice cue up for grabs, this thing has Kersenbrock written all over it, with the double ringed buttsleeve to the veneers inside the blockwork, and finally the large beveled center hole in the pin. Just like my predate ~85 Franklin South West.
