I like the...
1) Mottey, because I have never seen one like it from Paul
2) The Manzino because I could have seen (due to your documentary), how it was built and also because it is one of the nicest segmented handled cues
3) The Cantando owing to the extensive use of ivory and silver and these make a perfect match when it comes to appearance
4) The Gus because of the overall appearance and the A-ring that looks just ingenious
5) The Boar because of the superb point-work, I can pretty much see the blank with those deep-knifed points
6) The Gracio as this has been another step up in his career and owing that particular item is always extraordinary
7) The Bushka... well, I don't like it too much... Okay, I am just kidding
, its beauty lies beneath the clear coat and everyone has to appreciate that
8) I like this cue because it reminds me of a song I like listening to and that track's title is Propane nightmare - well, this cue is pretty much colored like propane
9) This cue shows the ingeniousity of George Balabushka, using so few shapes and creating so distinctive designs with them - although the pattern is rather simple, the overall looks is extremely elegant and fancy
10) I've been longing for a merry widow cue with a relatively small number of inlays that still give a shape, a theme to the cue and this is exactly it.
11) The Rasputin Gina, with its hair-thin silver veneers, shows the talent and knowledge of Ernie in the best possible way - therefore it is a must-have piece in every collection.
To sum it up, I think that the overall diversity of this close, 11-piece community of cues is the most desirable thing as it shows very-very well how much talent do we get to experience from today's and the near past's master craftsmen. Something, that everyone should appreciate, just like fine art.
