Hey, I just was looking up the word creativity in Webster's and there was a pic of Pete working a cue on his Mill.
 
While the detail is nice, I'm left with a 'meh' feeling. When I see that design all I think of is Ginacue designs.
 
Super clean work and great details as usual. Pete's work is outstanding to say the least!
 
Worthy of a anniversary cue....

I like it a lot :thumb up: Pete is truly one of the masters.

H em H,

You got to be kidding.

When I listen to Eric Clapton I think of Albert King a lot.

Point being? Ernie is the Master of our time and IMHO Pete is going to levels on some of his recent cues that put him in the starosphere.

No Diz without Pops, no Miles without Diz and Pops and the same goes in cue making.

Cues with points and inlays between points has been done by, Ernie, Jerry McWorter, Bill Schick, TW, Paul Drexler as well as many others. Not bad company to keep if you are a CM! Everyone adds their own bend to the brim in style concerning the inlay geometry and point interfaces.

Should anyone not make a full splice cue because someone did it before. Nonsense.

You must examine the execution to make a Judgment of this cue. Plain and simple.

I know you can't help yourself because every post you make is cynical and judgmental without too much basis or understanding of subject matter. That's how I see it or maybe it is just me who reads all of your posts and thinks like that.

JMO,

Rick
