Can't wait to see what he is delivering to you... already heard some whispers of what is in store. Have a great show at SBE... see you there.

ATM....hehehehe! Will miss the humour this year, Joe......put it on ice pal...I will be back in true Arnie fashion.

This cue represents class and heritage. Yes, Gus may well have had good tools but as they always say its the indian and not the arrow. Its how you use the tools you have. He was a true master of his craft.

Also, I can't stress how good Gus was at designing a balanced looking cue. Never over done, always tasteful and I love the design traits from cue to cue. I also love the famous Szamboti twists in design where something doesn't conform to conventional standards, pushing the envelope a little further with each cue. We are lucky to have Barry around in our time to carry on the heritage. I sincerely hope Jimmy carries on what his grandfather started.

Gus.....if you are reading this from somewhere up there.......thank you for all the cues.

I don't want to detract from the thread (you can post what you like Si....you are the OP......thank you) but here is a picture of the lime green veneer Gus I was talking about in the story.

If anyone knows where it is or who has it, it would be appreciated. Reward offered for its safe return into Diamonds hands...hehehehe.
