Amazing Gus

[poolrod]

This cue was never played until now. No dirt in the shafts, they look like Gus just made them. Made in 1984.

Beautiful Gus, glad you got it in your hands. Can't wait to hit a few balls with it when we get together. Take Care.

That really is an amazing Gus, you weren't kidding
The veneer colors are incredible
Very nice original Gus Hoppe, and quite an addition to your collection of Szamboti's.

Thank you, guys. I always wanted a Gus Hoppe style cue, I begged and offered tons of money to Randy, Ken and Eric, but they wouldn't turn loose, I can't blame them one bit. It waited 30 years to hit a rack, and it snapped the 9 ball in.
Great cues need to be played in my opinion, and I would never buy a cue I can't break with. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=smeiRiqYTHo

I'm sorry if this is a silly question, but is that really a Hoppe ring? It is pretty skinny.

I am in love with those veneers. Absolutely gorgeous cue.

Thank you, it is mighty pretty. I would rather have a thin ring, than a fat ring any day.
