I have for sale a beautiful Chris Nitti cue. I commissioned Chris to build this for me in 2015 and I picked it up February of 2016. The inlay work was my own design that Chris executed for me. It's the first cue he finished in 2016 numbered 2016-1. Curly maple forearm with 4 ebony points with diamond inlays. White with black spec irish linen weap. The butt is Ebony with the inlay work and a Hoppe ring. Inlays, Joint, Ferrules, Signature Ring work, Hoppe ring. Everything white on the cue is Ivory. Total of 28 inlays not including the ring work. I just picked up the cue from Chris' shop last week. He cleaned the shafts and gave it a once over to make sure it's in perfect condition. The cue has been played and hits like a dream as all his cues do. Has his standard radial pin.

Specs:
Butt is 15.5oz, 29 1/4"
Shaft one is 3.2oz, 12.25 mm, 29 3/8" and has a Moori Jewel tip on it.
Shaft two is 3.4oz, 12.5 mm, 29 5/8" and has the tip that Chris put on originally. I believe a Wizard


SOLD

Having owned several of Nitti's cues, I can say they are one of THE best hitting cues ever. His attention to detail, and craftsmanship are top of the chain..
This cue is a fine example of his work. Great cue, great price!

That's a nice one. Sure wish the shafts were thicker....

Funny you mentioned this. I ALWAYS keep one shaft at original 13mm, just in case I sell it. I have Chris Nitti pro taper the other to 12.75, My preferred thickness.

Yeah I'm definitely regretting the thinner shafts now. But the cue does play amazing like all of Chris's do. Thanks for the kind words
