advice on silver inlay cue needed

[Solartje]

Hi all,

i was wondering if people could tell me wich cuemaker to check out, for a cue that i could use for everyday playing and that has nice thin silver inlays.

ive always liked a black cue with silverwork like chudy does, but i was wondering wich cuemaker also makes good playing cue's with silver work in it and that is maybe a bit more affordable then RC3's or richard.

i dont need 300 inlays just some small amount

I think Alex Brick uses alot of silver. The two I owned did.

Alex Brick does indeed use lots of sterling silver. Check out the sterling in the joint rings on one of my Bricks:

And here's more "traditional" sterling silver ring work by Brick:

I do silver inlays also, What do you have in mind? I can do whatever size you like. This cue was sold at last years super billiard expo. The silver is .030 wide on this one. Feel free to call or email me and I can give you an estimate on cost. All my contact info is on the website link. Chris Byrne

thats one HELL of a cue chris!

very nice! (nice website too btw..)

ill keep you in mind, when i descided on the looks of the cue.

chuddy just makes the nicest cue's i could find, but 4k+ is just way over my price. is this because of the amount of inlays, the price of silver or do you pay for the name too?


i was wondering if other cuemakers could make similar cue's for a more afordable price.

thx for all the reply's

At one time, Bill Shick made many a cue with beautiful silver inlays.

Almost all our cues have small amounts of silver in the joints. Here is one with a lot of silver into bocote for only $695.

Solartje, I saw Alex Bricks playing cue last night, it has a ton of silver wire inlay in the butt and forearm. I bought a few raffle tickets for $1000 towards one of his cues and if my number is drawn that will be the style I would pick.
