    Adachi Cues

    These are rings common on these cues, often confused with custom cue rings. Often people will say they can't be "Taiwan" rings because there is textile grain in the rings, they have to be plastic. Not true of the better ones as I show here. Ada Chi: Mizerak Professional Series (notice...

    Please help ID sneaky Pete cue mker.

    I am a National/Gandy collector and would be interested in that sneaky. I would love to see pictures of the joint please. It is NOT likely a National made cue, it is likely a Gandy that I estimate was made in the early to mid seventies. Probably after 73 and before 76. Probably before Viking...

    Adachi Cues

    Same maker as Lishan, Cobra, Mizerak, Sierra, Orchid, Craftmaster, Pinnacle, and more. Kao I thought this was clear years ago but still often see them called Adam cues. Current example on eBay with both names (Lishan and Ada Chi) and the logo on the same cue.

    Help with thoughts about pool cue? Possibly identify who made it?

    Warp? Hard to say. Probably more random than some might suppose. It's wood.

    Help with thoughts about pool cue? Possibly identify who made it?

    Figured points are nice. But are they equal length and equally figured? I have a "low end" Asian import with two beautifully figured points, while the other two pouinta barely have any figure. That's just inconsistend wood choices common to such cues. We can see nice figure in one point on...

    If you want to sell here there is a forum for that, or there is ebay, FB marketplace, or others. Honestly you have enough info to sell it if you just add whether or not it is straight.

    Adam A/H 1

    It's not a "valuable" cue. It is the bottom of the line. Newer is less collector value, it's not really a collectible status cue. Age might be 1990's or 2000's I am guessing. It is a decent entry level cue, but many are moving to carbon fiber these days so interest might be lower. One post...

    Help with thoughts about pool cue? Possibly identify who made it?

    Garbage? I cannot find the exact cue. It best resembles some of the Rich Q cues as far as the rings and general construction, but not the bumper so much. Quality and value is relative. Cues like this typically sell in the $100 to $200 range, sometimes lower or higher than that. I look for...

    Help with thoughts about pool cue? Possibly identify who made it?

    I'll try. Those are cool veneer colors, I'll say that. Someone mentioned Viking, maybe because of the mushroom bumper. That's possible. They did have rings like that. They made cues for a number of brands but lost those records between their closure and re-opening. I'm at Disney Springs...

    There are a variety of types of ebony, and I am no expert, so I won't guess. You can post my pics, I don't care. 👍 I am really excited to see your cue and talk about it. Any chance you can link to that post you found on AZB? I can't find it.

    Don't want to burst your bubble...and I could definitely be wrong...but I doubt that is ebony, at least it's not "jet black" ebony, we can see that in the pics. You can see my E-H3 is definitely inlays. The others? I would not want to argue about it. Maybe prototypes were inlays? Early...

    Here is an E-F5 with one piece butt cap/butt sleeve, and push in bumper, but it has the tulipwood rings. I have two shafts for this.
