It took a while to grow on me, but now I like figured ebony.

Thanks for looking!

Very nice! Love those veneers too! But yes, black ebony is cool but I love some good figured ebony too. Part of the appeal of wood is the unique character that you can get from it.
 
Top shelf Larry.. Always looking forward to what you will come up with next. I love the look of your cues and they play outstanding.
 
Those veneers are looking pretty crisp. I also agree on the Ebony, a little character makes things interesting. Nice work!
 
I feel like the demand for jet black ebony was kind of like craze for super white shaft wood a while back, except it's stuck around much longer. I'm glad to see this post Larry. From a respected builder like you, this is a good point of view to share.

For those who haven't seen it, here is an awesome video about sustainable ebony harvesting practices by a company that makes excellent guitars.

Sometimes the uglier the wood, better looking the cue :D
Congrats to the owner. Larry's work is top notch and plays good too.
