Old Mali
That is one of the newer Mali cues. The old Green lettered Mali's from the 80's were actually built pretty well. Then they sent thier stuff overseas for a while and the quality tanked. These latest ones are built pretty well and they have gone with good old fashioned Busha and Hoppe designs. Based on the cues you play with, you probably wont think it is very solid. I would say that they dont hit as well as a Joss or Schon but if you put a Tiger or OB on it, you wont be able to tell the differnce anyway.

Too bad the older Mali's are not appreciated more.. My old green logo, even gold logo Mali's shoot solid as can be. My main players for a long time. Newer overseas models not so much IMO. If you go ahead with the purchase I hope you like it.

The butt is in 100% shape , the shaft is warped. I have been straightening the shaft but it seems to have a memory.
I will work on the shaft some more, it is too nice of a cue to collect dust.
When I get the shaft straight ( if ) you still want it then we can work something out.

Not trying to hijack the thread but Mort Mike, if want to sell call me first. My first real cue was a 1984 green label plain jane that I whittled down to 12MM. Probably only weighed 17.5oz. Wish I had never sold it.
