Hi John,

bus driver Ron has a mak cue to add to the count. A local DC legend. His daily player.

If you ever consider selling or trading the wrapless let me know. Hoping its big pin and not stainless steel joint.

I have a classic Scruggs and want to keep a cue from the shop in my collection. Just need wrapless and big pin. Pretty hard to find.

Sweet collection. Mike was a great guy and his cues played even better. 43 listed so far and only 1 MAK in that count. I would say there are probably closer to 75 of his cues. Give or take a few. Whatever the number, great collection.
 
The Best MC

This is my favorite and best Cochran ever built.Mike loaded it with gold.Mike was a true craftsman, and when you look at his work in your hands you can understand.

One day I got an email from Mike that had progress pictures of this cue. I called immediately and told him how awesome it was and asked who he was building it for.(I'll never forget his exact words)"You dopey".That was a great surprise.

Enjoy

Eric, the collection is incredible. That last cue without a doubt is the best looking MC out there. Glad you liked the wrapless. I have been collecting them since 87 and currently have 26 TS and the 2 MC cues. You probably do not remember meeting me at Mikes funeral. Tough day.

Tim said he had an incredible time at your place. Thank you for everything you have done for them.

That is a pretty bad ass cue right there. And while I usually love to laugh at Nick for mystical "floaters" thread, you posted one or two others before with "floaters". Those were also pretty beautiful cues! A repost would be great!
 
Eric, that is not only the best MC ive seen, it's also one of the most well executed cues that I've ever seen. I am typically not a fancy cue guy, but that one is ornate whithout being gaudy. A hard balance to strike. I love it!

I remember meeting a lot of great people on a very bad day.I would love to see those Scruggs someday.
On another note here's Tim on a good day a couple weeks ago up here in Connecticut.

Eric I have found too many Cochran's for you!

And 31 is an unlucky number too! Sell me one! I only have 3.:(
My pleasure by the way,
Nick :)
 
Eric!

Eric,, I must say thats an amazing collection of Baltimore, Maryland heritage and cue making. Mike was one of the best if not the best IMO, its a total shame hes gone. Not because of his cues but because of the great person he was, But his talent for the art of cue making was top notch to say the least!

Congrats and enjoy them in good health and hope you can land a few more to the family. I am sure glad I was able to contribute 3rd from left,
14th from left, and 6th from the right....as nice as they are or were i dont regret selling them to you a bit because they go very very nice with the rest of them and its nice to see them lying out all together....enjoy and congrats again :wink:
 
the best for the BEST

Eric my Friend, I'm speechless. I was knowing about your BB's and Scruggs but this Collection is out of world. When the time is right I'll visit you for fishing:grin:.
We have a WONDERFULL Scruggs here in Germany that I know you would love to own(1000%)
Best,
Ralf-still on the better way:yeah:
