Very nice cue, and Pete is another cue builder that I think highly of. I called Pete last month when I traded for a similar but Hoppe style Omen cue, quilted maple & ebony, leather wrap. I've wanted an Omen cue for a few years now, after seeing a couple of them one night, as I thought they were stunning cues to look at. They play great, and I love the way he makes his pins with the Omen name inside the threads. The other thing I noticed about this cue is that it came with a new Omen shaft and 2-Predator Z-shafts. I really didn't think I would like the Predator Z-shafts but I do, and the combination works with either shaft.
Pete is a great guy to talk to about pool and cues in general. He is also quite the businessman and seems to be very focused on the customer. Although he has a waiting list, he actively does some repair & refinish work, and from what I can see is very good at it.
