Well here it is Sly sent me the pics tonight while I was out at pool league ... This is one of 4 cues I have coming from Sly two of these will be Exotic Wrapless Players this is the first one ... Also on order is a full splice and a Jump Break... These Exotics come with 2 shafts not sure if you have ever shot with one of Sly's shafts but they are about as smooth a shaft as you will ever see and made out of some of the finest straight grain Maple Sly can find .... I had Sly install Everest tips on these two and the ferrells are some type of material that Sly got from Mason ... Mason recomended this ferrell material to Sly and when Sly tried it and told me it is the best he has ever played with I had him install it on my two shafts ... Sly told me can make the cue ball parallel park anywhere on the table with the action you get from this ferell material... lol...

The Cue has Highly Figured Brazailian Rosewood in the forearm and butt sleeve ... Black phenolic butt cap and joint... 3/8 10 Brass pin ... Highly Figured Olive Handle ... Ebony on Ivory Southwest Style ring work... It comes with two shafts at 12.70 diameter ... 1 inch ferrells ... and Everest tips .... This is how the cue was ordered ... Sly as always has done a great job with this one from what I can see so far ... The cue should wiegh in at 19.5 oz...

What makes it even better is that Sly is going to hand deliver this cue to me this weekend ... along with a shaft for my Sneaky Cocobolo Jointed Sly Playing Cue ... We will be meeting up this weekend in Macon Georgia where we will hang out for at least a week and do some work and play some racks of pool ... And he will hand deliver this very nice new player to me ... Once I get a chance to play with it a while I will take more pictures of it and post a review on it ... This is one I have been waiting on and I am excited to be getting it ...

Below are some pictures of the cue and Thanks Sly for being a friend and how quick you completed this cue for me ... Looking forward to seeing you this weekend ... And hitting some balls with this baby ...

Take it easy on sly. He needs his rest, to complete my sneaky
when he gets back home. The cue looks great, be sure & let us
know how it plays. Been wanting a sly for quite some time now.
But good things always come to those who wait.
 
Hope mine is this nice

Great looking cue. After I bought a Sly sneaky I was hooked. Leon is working on my exotic player that I hope looks this nice. Don't wear him out, he needs to get back and finish my cue! I can't tell you how much I like my Sly and can't wait to get one that's a bit more fancy.
 
Nice looking cue

I'm sure your going to be very happy with that beautiful cue I know I love both of my Sly's. My 4 point 4 veneer ivory and sterling silver cue is my favorite , I get so many compliments on the cue as i'm sure you will on yours.
 
Yeah I'm sure I'm gonna have to look out for that old man while he is down here in Georgia ... Hopefully Jeff and I will be a big help to him and his wife and he will not have to work so hard ...Besides I need him as fresh as possible for when we do find the time to get on a pool table ... I don't want him to have any excuses as to why he got wore out on the table at my hands .... He may be a little thinner when he gets back up North but it won't be from work ... I hear that those cup of noodless he will be forced to eat are not very fattening ... ;) :rotflmao1:
 
Very Nice!

If you haven't played with Everest tips before, you are going to love them. I switched to them not long ago, and I will not use another tip for as long as Tiger products keeps making them!! Just wondering if the ferrules are new yellow micarta, old yellow micarta, or Juma? Very nice cue! Congrats!:cool:
 
Sly talked me into switching to Everest some time back it is all I use now ... Those are some great tips that hold thier shape well... I love them.....
 
I will be picking this one up in person tomorrow in Macon ... Dang Sly I feel like it is Christmas ... and you must be Santa Clause ... Will you be bringing your reindeer tomorrow ... lol...;)
 
Picked this one up from Sly this past week as we spent a week together in Macon Ga. ... Will post a review as soon as possible ...
