He has at least one assistant. A friend drove up a couple years ago and had some work done on a cue. Having said that, Scot is amazing and can do whatever you need for a cue.

I thought so. Great looking cue nonetheless, somebody went to a lot of effort on that cue.

Beautiful cue. I assume second catalog, Model D? One thing, that's a strange green veneer for a Titlist blank. To my knowledge, they were sort of an aqua green rather than what looks like a forest green on this cue. Any background on that?

I guess that was the jeweled Crown then. That was an early age to be playing such a valuable cue. Rempe himself in a televised match said it was worth ten grand. I assume Eric still owns the cue, but not sure.

That's my memory as well. Believe the fancy one played by Rempe was made about 1984.

For the sharp-eyed, is Jim Rempe holding his famous jewel-inlaid Meucci Crown cue? My impression was that it was built sometime in the 80s, could have been that early.

Probably more than 2 or 3 out of 100 average, but definitely not as plentiful as 14 thread pin with steel joint.

Did it make for a sweeter hit than normal? I'm still occasionally breast fed, so couldn't resist. :cool:

Also an advantage in golf.

After you use every level device possible, make a habit of rolling balls lengthwise and widthwise on the table, especially with carpet. Minimal adjustments sometimes have to be made.

Nice old school window design. A lot of way older Joss cues have a similar look. Good choice.

Justin, how about you look it all up for yourself.

One of the more interesting stories behind a cue. Thanks for posting. All the best, WW

I would add Bill Weenie Beanie Staton to the list as well.

I think Melamine is one of the best, if you're not looking for low mass. It can have the shade of ivory, even a grain look. Also a great hit. It's pretty hard to get the old Micarta these days, so if you're not looking for a low deflection formula, Melamine is it.

Hung, was that you playing pool in one of the sleazy bars in Tijuana, getting free chili, as long as you were drinking Tiquila?

That was almost Mike Sigel in the 2000 U.S. Open Straight Pool tournament.

It's difficult. Given the design, I think it's a garage project.

Looks like a garage project by Doug Seeth.

Anybody have an autograph of Lassiter's with the name Wimpy to compare? Some of the signatures above look like deeper engravings rather than just a written signature. Interesting cue though.
