Price is in there

Indeed, agreed, so kind of you to say...thanks for that buddy. I have truly loved this cue, since before it even came to be mine Oh yeah, I actually JUST read something about Mr Helmstetter innovating with some design (or) concept applied to making drivers Aand yes, this cue is now officially...

I'm not 100% sure, I 100% know what that's asking...but if it means is there a wobble in the shaft when rolled, then no, nothing I could detect, everything rolled astonishingly flat, when I checked it a few days ago

This cue has only been lightly used, and is in fantastic shape (I'd say around 95% with my limited knowledge) as it has always been deeply loved and very attentively cared for, with few minor cosmetic surface scrapes, 1 small ding on shaft Both butt and shaft roll flat seperate and together...

Agreed...the PR 9 a few steps below this was the 1st cue I bought myself Still have it & still love it, plays great

Aha, thx for that. I was just re-reading & was still wondering about that

Ohhh, ok, thanks I don't necessarily need to "max out", 'cause I'm not trying to retire off it by any means, but I may have a specific need to fulfill Pretty much, if I do let it go, it's going to be to help my sis out, so I'd hope for a "fair for both of us outcome" ideally...if it can meet...

So the day may be coming where I decide to (finally) part with this cue I noticed the template in the for sale section & want to be sure to post accurate info, even though I'm sure most of y'all know all this just by looking Anyone mind giving me a hand with these? I got weights from a...

Speed and power as independent from each other? I'm not physicist, but that sounds weird "The stronger the muscle, the quicker the bone" comes to mind...my wrestling coach said that Sounds like however much power is exerted, determines the speed, and the speed of the cb determines how much...

Too true...I'm not yet 50, and I miss the days of young and mature/wise, or even middle aged & mature/wise, not being exceedingly rare, much less mutually exclusive combinations to come across Although I spent a good chunk of my young adult years traveling (and even another bunch of years once...

Ummm, I would say I probably don't have the breadth of experience swinging a variety of truly great cues to answer that with the kind of sincerity & detail, the more established members here could Aand I haven't swung it myself, since I think '09 maybe (I'm working on getting it out there asap)...

I'm glad this ol' thread popped up...I enjoyed reading the entire thing (keeping "my mouth shut" & thumb off the like button 'til I reached present day 😅) As an artist myself (a benchworking/mounted torch borosilicate glassblower) we experience similar, with startup/equipment, time & wasted...

Haha, sorry if that was a dumb question. In my journey to becoming a specialist in a thing or two...I've experienced suddenly becoming aware of the existence of much more nuanced, and ever finer levels of knowledge & understanding than I 1st expected (like, right when ya think ya know...

Niiice...is there something in particular that makes a biagio? That's a new 1 for me, so I took a look & it seems like kind of a sub brand that was made my many different names ...which made me curious if there's any distinctive features they all have in common

Ya, thx...horrible, like warped?

It is indeed, thx. From what I've seen looking around when I was trying to identify it, it sounded like it was pretty common for them to be swelling, warping & generally falling apart after 25 - 30 yrs This 1 appears to have had a good & easy life from the start ...lucky

Heh heh...it'd be a peach of a house cue, no doubt. But I can't imagine they'd last long in that setting, yikes Whattaya know about the original shafts for these that makes ya say that?

I'm quite sure I know it's an Adam A-H Corsair (36?) from mid 70's What I'm unsure of, and what I'd like to know is how 1 of y'all ultra knowledgeable folks would assess its condition, and whether it's had any repair or restoration work done to it...but my feeling is that it hasn't I've had...

Aha...no no, thank you, it's my pleasure I'm faar from a cue expert, but I'm an artist (long time glassblower) and art lover, aand that piece is an absolute stunner The aesthetic is just 💋🤌

Yeah, those long, fine silver inlays are something else
