Add Inlays Or Leave It Alone? Opinions Please

BRW needs nothing to spruce it up. I love Rosewood on Rosewood points though. Leave this one alone and get another with propellers and boxes
 
It is a Tascarella, it is perfect just the way it is. If you want fancy, buy a fancy one.
 
It's your cue to do whatever you want to do with it but there is beauty in an unadorned cue made from an exotic wood, in this case BRW. I own a similar cue by another maker and do-so for the very reason that it has no inlays.
 
Don't do it......keep your cue, build up your savings and order a cue made the way you want the design.
A retrofit is never as good as the real thing from the very outset and you can order the same wood again.
 
Your cue do what you want. Everyone's going to say no don't do it's a tascarella , you're nuts buy another one but not many people can work on their own cues like you can , why not challenge your self you only live once.
 
You know me well enough to know that I would leave it as is.

IMO, most "over inlay" cues. IF you have a cue with great wood (such as this one) the inlays will cheapen it, in my eyes.

JMO,

Lol well I guess the general consensus is to leave it as is. That is exactly what I will do. As I'm reading through all these replies I am reminded why I ordered a cue like this to begin with. Thanks guys.

I'd get a proper, black linen wrap.
And then the kicker - have the top coat and paint removed and instruct to NOT use filler, but just seal lightly with 2 layers of coat.

That way the wood and grain will shine through and you can even feal it!

A proper, black linen wrap? The white with light green specks is the most traditional.

Top coat and paint removed? Paint? What are you talking about?

Feal it? There are no words...

I was confused with that response as well. I ordered my cue like this for a reason in the fact that the Ivory and green stitch rings tie into the white with green speck wrap.

As far as the proper linen wrap, top coat, paint and so on, not sure what that was about.
