Brunswick Willie Hoppe Professinoal cue FS/FT

bankout86 · Dec 22, 2017

This cue is in very good condition for its age. Not sure on wood but looks like rosewood to me . It has been in a case stored in a closet for the last 30+ years. Not going to find many in the condition. The but cap seems to be a little loose and there are some knicks and dents on the cue.

Possible trades :
Sharp point/ Runde Schon
Gilbert
Scruggs sneaky
Olney
Diveney

$600

So these are the newest versions?
It seems they have smaller 1/4” trim rings instead of 1/2” black on either side of joint and they also have 5/16x18 pin instead of 5/16x14. I also noticed they have numbers (3 digits) on both shaft and butt. Does anyone have more info on these hoppes??

Yes.

They were made by Adam out of parts shipped to Japan. The number was intended to keep the shafts with the correct butts in shipping.

This one is, I think, a Schmleke splice. Later even the splice was made by Adam. It is not a Brunswick Titlist blank.
