There 2 SR8-A are made from quality birdeye blanks and south america rosewood. You will get the 2 blanks in the pictures...the flaw can be see clearly in the pics below, are in one of the point only and it missing wood. I don't know if any builder will be able to fix this but I'm sure there some create builder out there than can convert these into beautiful cues.
Here's the pics:
