Hi,
Straight Grain Maple & Ebony with 45 degree orange/maple/black box veneered rings with 8 inlays designed by Mr Hoppie. This was the last A-Jointed cue I built.
I built this cue about about 2 years ago and it was sitting in my shop with the wrong wrap on it. I had originally bought a leather textured wrap that looked like a basketball and was excited about doing it as the Basketball Jones cue with orange veneer rings to accent the wrap. A lot of my friends that come into my shop told me not to do with that wrap so I put on another black bison wrap.
Before the windy city show, I removed the wrap and the basketball wrap was installed. After that the cue was sexy to it's new owner.
Moral to the story, "Always go with your first instinct". LOL

A few Mooris and some shaft burnishing and waxing left to do.
