Great cue here ... just one thing , regarding NEO OPERATOR's question above dated Sept 12 about the shafts. you responded you never used them,, but clearly the shaft on the right was used. But again, great looking cue, and what are you asking for it ??
Hi Heo !! Great looking cue!! Just a few questions... I see the intertwineded "TS" logo that helps narrow it down, but what year was this cue made ? is the joint stainless steel or flat face as is is hard to tell by the pics ? Is the wrap original ? ferrules and tips ? .. I too have a Scruggs...
Having the rings line up exactly doesn't necessarily mean an inferior execution of the design. in fact, it may lend proof to the trained eye that this was not made using any CNC machining and rather hand cut and inlaid, making it hand made and in my opinion it's more unique
Thank you so very much for that information. Thomas WAS another consideration at that time. I'm sorry that I cannot post my pictures of it because of having an Android phone.
I was wondering if anyone knows how to identify a 1X2 case made by Jack Justis. As I was speaking with Richard Black on my cue order in 1989, he recommended about three case makers, and Jack Justis was one of them. However, I forgot if that's who I went with !! . The black felt lined inner oval...
I have one of Tim's cues made in the early to mid '80s and was hoping for Bob to look it over, date and authenticate it, as well as replacing the tips,
and maybe have the wrap cleaned and re-pressed if he felt it should be done, given the value and how great the original fit and finish it's in...
I agree and I never would. I was just wondering HOW they would verify authenticity and value. I will be passing them on to my son, a Marine.
He and I USED to play before this Covid thing. now, they just stand at attention. too bad.
I have a Scruggs, two Blacks, and a Gina. What would happen if I go into a large pawn shop and said I wanted to sell them. Truthfully, I AM the original owner, had them for well over twenty years, but I have no proof. How might this play out ?
Hi skins. I was wondering how to place an order for a Searing cue. I can't seem to find a direct website. Please pass on any information , as it would be appreciated . Thanks so much
very poor image quality, but I would shoot the 15 past the 10, allowing a slight angle on the 9. with high right english on 9 breaking the 14/5.
bank the 10 to get position on 14. Anyone with me on that?
How does the ban on elephant ivory, both African and Asian species affect those of us, and there are many, as far as owning, wishing to sell, collecting,
purchasing new custom cues ? Do cuemakers still use it in new cue orders?
I did not know Bill Stroud personally , nor have I played with any of his cues. I just wanted to say that speaking of someone in such a negative
way, regardless of the cuemaker, past or living, is unnecessary and quite rude. May He rest in peace.
