I saw this item on E-Bay and the question just had to be asked....
First off - the link:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Used-Jacoby-Cue-with-2-Shafts-/271054073721?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3f1c14ef79#ht_500wt_1414
Secondly, I by no means am disparaging or making fun of David Jacoby, I have owned his cues in the past and find them excellent, and have spoken with him numerous times at tournaments. This just happened to be the example.
Now, most people consider cue making to be functional artistry. Despite the fact that you have paying customers, sometimes they choose color or wood combinations that you might not agree with. So is there an artistic 'line in the sand'? Would you say to a potential customer 'I'm sorry but I don't think I can build that for you' based solely on the looks of the cue being ordered?
Not looking to judge either way - just got me curious.
