Double butterfly points in gorgeous Thuya burl and rich Cocobolo. The cue is in perfect literally new condition, has a beautiful perfectly matched brown leather wrap, 3/8x10 pi and 2 13mm shafts with LBM ferulles.
I guess that most of you never heard of Bill so here you are an opportunity to learn something and to get some insides.
I always liked and appreciated his work, workmanship but the way his cues play.
They are one of the best playing cues you can come across.
I was lucky enough to come across on this one not too long ago and to get my hands on it!
Enjoy the photos and here you are an introduction to Bill's work!😀

Well Billy Webb, known on AZ Billiards as Spiderweb has finally received the recognition for his work that he deserves. The July-August edition of inside pool magazine has featured Billy Webb as the Cue maker of the month in their Cue Makers Corner, Written By AZ Member Fred Agnir.

Billy Webb, has worked for many years on perfecting his cue making abilities. Billy is a very humble individual who rarely tut-es his own horn, and this more than anything has prevented him from receiving the recognition he greatly deserves. Billy builds his cues along the lines and using the parabolic taper developed by David Paul Kersenbrock and also used in South West and bender Custom Cues.

Billy mostly built cues that have six points three high and three low with Veneers in most cases. However, over the years Billy has been perfecting Butterfly Spliced cues in addition to his six point cues. The Butterfly Spliced cues that Billy has been perfecting Butterfly Spliced cues in addition to his six point cues. The Butterfly Spliced cues that Billy Builds are very unique and include a combination of standard points in conjunction with Butterfly points. Very few cue makers can make cues that are even similar to these Butterfly cues due to the overlapping veneers form Butterfly Splice to Butterfly splice. As I have stated above Billy is very humble and plainly states that Paul Fanellli and Kyle Van Den Bosch (Mariposa Cue Company) make the best around. Here is a direct quote made by Billy in another post concerning the two previous mentioned cue maker.

Always interesting to see pics inside the end grain patterns in veneered cues. Surprising shapes & insights.
Great work!!
