Anyone heard of SSC cues?

multiple possible matches for acronym "SCC"
I looked through my copy of the Blue Book of Pool Cues, 3rd Ed. There wasn't a reference for an "SSC" cues, which could mean that the busines goes by a different name, is no longer in business, or simply wasn't in business when the book was updated. Sometimes a player will call a company by an acronym even if the company doesn't use that acronym.

Is it possible the acronym is used for Tim Scruggs Custom Cues? He's a notable cuemaker and his cues are highly prized (though you may well already know this).

Matches for "SCC" could also be
Sanko Custom Cuses
Scot Sherbine Custom Cues
Showcase Custom Cues
Showman Custom Cues
Shurtz Custom Cues
Sierra Custom Cue
Star City Cues
Star Cue Company
Strader Custom Cues
or possibly even
Dennis Searing Custom Cues.
Hard to say without more information. Do you know anything else about the cues: how old are they? how expensive? what materials were used? in what city and/or state in which they were made?
You can use Google to search the contents of any site. To do so, type the search terms as you normally would followed by "site:" and the domain of the site. Like this:
ssc site:forums.azbilliards.com
That particular search didn't yield any answers, but the technique may help you search other sites.
To give two other example, if I wanted to find references to snooker on the parent site I would use the following:
snooker site:azbilliards.com
and to find the exact phrase "snooker table" I would include the term in quotes like this:
"snooker table" site:azbilliards.com

If I remember correctly, that was Slamstone Cues logo.
He was big on ebay for awhile and had a following on AZ, but I haven't heard anything about him in a couple years.

You are correct.
