Interesting that you criticize me for both who I am and for being anonymous. You're a real class act.

Do you have stake in Pete's scams? If you're the JV I've heard about, then hmmmm...

Regardless of anything you said, this cue is not a Balabushka. Verl Horn, Palmer, whoever made it, it was not made by George.

Did you sell it to Rod and now he's going to realize he had a lemon? Oops

Pete Tascarella LOA'd this cue, missed the Spain measurements on this blank, but called it legit. I can see from here it's, at best, EXTREMELY QUESTIONABLE.

The title of this thread, "Original GB" is misleading. The poster will be selling this cue in 4 minutes if he follows his usual pattern, and someone else will be catching a grenade. For you to discredit that is extremely shady.

How do you know it wasn't made by George Mr. O'brien? Please, educate me.

So wait.. now its extremely questionable, or is it not made by George as in definitive?

You're a wanna be, while Pete has over 30 years. You have no proof and cannot shed any light one way or another. The only fraud here is you.

There is nothing misleading about the thread title, he has a letter from one of three whom I would personally trust. Pete O'Brien is not on that list.

In fact you have only convinced me of one thing... that there is not ONE sober Irishman in Northern NY...

One of your problems Rod is from the angle the prongs look longer than they are.

Even with the way the lens is "stretching" the photo at both ends you can't get a good aspect of the picture. Unless you know what you're looking at which some do not.

Here are the specs, From the top of the stainless joint, to the wrap is 12.25
The wrap is the same in length. The joint is 1.0, and with the pin, it is 1.75. I wish it was a Gus blank, but Pete says Spain. I never been to Spain, but I kinda like the music.:thumbup:

Just stuck...

Your attention to detail is as sharp as in your forgeries. Oh, tributes, sorry.


So Pete has all of George's supplies, signs a letter on a cue he made, and it becomes a Balabushka? Amazing vertical monopoly there.

Post that known fake Pete made, just so we know you have actual proof anything like this happened.

Some internet wannabe claims to know more than a guy with 40 years experience...

Again..show the proof...

BTW they aren't forgeries unless you make them to sell as the originals. Pick up a dictionary once in a while...

It is a beauty Rod and I can't see Pete building a cue and pass it for a Balabushka !

There is no doubt in my mind that this Bushka is an original. That's why I shelled out a boat load of money to buy it in or about April or May2015. It is a great cue in incredible original condition.

I only wish Pete could get the moron who posted to this thread and slandered Pete in a room alone for about two minutes.

Mike, those who SHOULD know what this cue is do. Those who shouldn't either dont know Georges cues, dont care, are jealous, have an axe to grind, or are just ignorant. In this case it's prabably a combonation of the last three.

Pete has no wories.

I have no hesitation betting my life on this Bushka being 100% original and a Bushka. Are the morons who question this cue's authenticity willing to make the same bet?
