SOLD! SOLD! SOLD!
All original 1976 Joss West Hoppe cue. Burton Spain forearm. Butt and Shaft 1 are all original - original finish, wrap, everything. Shaft 2 was made a few years ago by Pete Tascarella with the same taper and exact matching ring. True V-Spliced points, sharp and even.
Unbelievable playing cue and a must-have for serious JW Collectors. This cue has the most distinctive sound, an Old School "poink" that a trained ear can hear from across the room.
LOOK AT THAT SHAFT WOOD! 'nuff said
I started to send this to Billy for a much-needed refinish, decided to sell it instead. REPEAT: this cue NEEDS a refinish. Proficient charges $150.00, Billy charges $500.00. If you intend on playing with it (as I have), send it to Scot at Proficient or your favorite finish guy; to maintain Collector's value, send it to Bill Stroud.
SPECS
BUTT: 4 point, 4 veneer Burton Spain Forearm. Ebony points into BEM; points are Natural, Black, Green, Black
HOPPE STYLE! - Ivory Hoppe ring with "JW" logo (sideways)
Ebony Butt sleeve
5/16-14 pin with SS joint
Shaft 1: Original JW with unbelievable wood! 4.05 oz. 13mm (original taper, never turned or sanded) Ivory ferrule, Kamui tip
Shaft 2: Made by Pete Tascarella, approx 12.85, 3.6 oz, yellow MICARTA ferrule (the good Westinghouse yellow stuff)
Wrap: Original Cortland white/green spec. The good stuff.
STRAIGHT! Together and apart. Excellent condition - a few playing dings, into finish only.
Full 58" cue (somewhat unusual for this time period)
Since this cue needs a refinish, I'm pricing it accordingly and I'm pricing it to move NOW at SOLD SOLD SOLD PayPal fees and insured EXPRESS MAIL shipping (domestic). PayPal only, no trades. PM or email me:
