2nd is a 26 year old Richard Black "Brasall" model with blue and black veneers.
One of the straightest most solid cues I've ever owned. Great player.
Butt 15.0 oz, 5/16 x 14 piloted SS joint. This cue is 57.5" long with an even 28 3/4" split.
1 original shaft, 4.05 oz, 13mm, ivory ferrule and Moori med tip.
Balance is 19 1/8".
JP's in pictures not included but I will provide nice JP's.
I will throw in a spare shaft,(maker unknown to me) but it will make a serviceable spare shaft. This shaft is free and doesn't change price.
"SOLD" Thank You - Shipped/Insured CONUS ONLY - No OBO or Trades please. Paypal ok.

3rd is an older Richard Black "After Six" 1981-1983 ish.
Butt 16.2 oz, straight, leather wrap (seam visible) and some dings. 5 veneers black, mahogany, blue, orange and natural. 5/16 x 14 SS joint. The butt has a steel weight bolt that I can't get out to see how heavy it is, too tight.
1st shaft is 3.95 oz 13mm, ivory ferrule. (stitch ring on this shaft is a little thinner than the ring on the joint) Shaft is straight/solid.
2nd shaft is 3.87 oz, 12.25mm at top of ferrule, 12.45mm at bottom of ferrule, ivory ferrule, small taper roll/solid. This is a 58" cue.

This cue has been used over its 30 plus years and has some minor issues. I count 7 finish chips/dings in the butt. See picture of wrap seam, the wrap is not loose. One shaft has a small taper variance, nothing leaves the table and it doesen't bother me but for those that are obsessed with "roll" please pass this one up. The cue is priced accordingly.

"SOLD" Thank you - Shipped/Insured CONUS ONLY - No OBO or Trades please. Paypal ok.

The specs on that cue are, IMO, perfect.

Rick makes an amazing cue and is one of the nicest people walking the face of the earth. Fact.

If you have the money, grab this cue. You won't be sorry. :grin-square:
