I have this Barry Szamboti.. contacted years ago to have refinished and get a COA, long story short I did get a reply, believed it was one of his cues, rare wrap, etc, busy, and would reach back out when he had the time.

Crickets.

Now I understand he's basically retired.

Looking for advice, as I would love to have this gem refinished and have a COA, just in case some day I decide to sell it.

THanks!

I'm sorry, but I had to retire because of poor health.
I had a Liver transplant this year and I hope that soon I will be able to finish cues in progress.
I can not take in anything from people, I'm sorry.

When I started making cues full time, 2/8/1990 my mission was to make the best cue I could and
to NEVER tarnish the name that Dad made. I wanted people to feel like they were a kid on Christmas morning,
getting the toy that they were wishing for, when they got their cue.

I hope that I achieved that wish.
Thank you everyone who took a chance with me.
Respectfully,
Barry Szamboti

I hope you can enjoy life and not worry about pool cues now. Nice that you checked in, the Szamboti name is tarnish free in my book.

I’ve been the whole time. I’m happy Barry came here and reported. I was sworn to silence.

Barry is my friend and he cares about the cues and his dad’s legacy as much as a man can. Barry succeeded above and beyond what most men can do. Gus & Barry are the greatest of the greats.

He’s got a long happy retirement to enjoy and that’s something he earned and I’m very happy for him. What’s better than that?

Best
