Bump!
Hello manwon:
Thanks for sharing these pics! I always loved the US Open design. These alternating veneers are just nice and a unique feature.

Nice looking cue's
I was wondering is there a site somewhere with pics of the different Huebler cue that have been made over the years?
I had a really nice on that I bought back in 90-91 and had to pawn in late 94 i want to say, and would really like to find another like it. It was natural wood with a lot of purple if i remember in the butt..
Sorry for the hijack..but those pics reminded me of the first good cue i owned and lost..

Your friend has some nice ones, I've always been a sucker for Hueblers. Thanks for posting them.
I have also always been a sucker for them Rusty, in fact I bought my first cue from Paul in 1973. I played with that cue for at least 10 years and then sold it.
Take care Rusty!!!
I always loved that "broken veneer" (what I called it) design. Very cool looking. After checking my old Heubler brochure and reading the comments above, I now know the real name of the cue is the U.S. Open.

Will here is another one that you may like, it is owned by a local player who uses this cue as his every day player.
The cue is a Custom Huebler and it is one of only three ever made. The shafts are Ebony spliced into Maple, both shafts have Ivory Ferrules. I called Paul in 2005 to have an extra shaft made for this cue, at that time time the shafts were $550 ea. The butt of the is similar other Hueblere Chessmen cues except of the rings and the venners used in the points, all White on this cue is Ivory including the Butt Cap and The Joint.

my first cue was a huebler,,,, people dont know how fine his cues are!!!!!!!!!!!! who has the other 2 chessman cues???????? that chekerboard is nice!!!!!!! what did it go for new????????? thats what efern needs so he could play pool @ chess at the same time!!!!!!! thanks for the pictures!!!! post up if ya have more hueblers!!!!! them palmer looking ones so nice ZZ Brock
If enough Huebler owners submit photos, then this will eventually be the site that you are seeking. I just bought my first computer and don't own a digital camera but I will try to submit photos of the two Custom Shop Hueblers that I own in the near future.
I have no idea who has the other two cues or if they even exist anymore. I have to agree the checker board design on that cue is certainly unique. I think the cue cost around $1000 new, and the gentleman who owns it is the original owner.
Thanks for your post.
Huebler Custom Chess
I have the fancier Chess cue, about 25 years old and still unplayed, but it does not have the ebony shaft. I have a few of the rare customs (Including the US Open) and feel it is a good investment. E.G.: Entry level Scruggs cues with points and veneers are selling for about $1500. These are no where near as rare as some of these more rare Huebler cues.
Some day when the market gets better, I may part with some of the cues. For the right price or trade any are for sale now. I think Paul will be 82 this year and no more will be made.

I think Paul's customs are truly under valued, and they have been for years. I am originally from St. Charles, Mo and I have know Paul personally since around 1972. I don't understand why he has never really received the credit he certainly deserves, but it may be because people confuse his production cues with his Customs. Please post some photo's of your Chessman and other Huebler cues.
Take Care.
