I purchased this cue from Chuck about 6 months ago, I've been very happy with it.
First off the birds eye in this cue is exceptional, the main reason for purchasing it.
The cue has a very nice finish on it, but it's best quality is the hit or feel.
The cue has a very firm / organic feel to it. I'm guessing it's from the combination of a solid wood butt, wood pin and wood to wood joint. It really does feel like your playing with a one piece cue, very little vibration and noise.
The only "con" is when I revived the cue the shaft was a little on the beefy Side 13.3mm tip and about 1/16th thicker then an average shaft at the joint. I had Justin Daniliunas turn the shaft Down to 13mm tip with a longer taper.
If anyone is in the market for a cue that's a great player at a fair price... Chuck Starkey is your man!
Couple pictures sorry have to figure out pictures better
