This is the most unique looking Schon I have ever seen, priced to sell quickly-cause something's got to go:
Schon Ltd
Forearm: some kind of rosewood forearm w/6 long cocobolo points; ebony spears (recut points); w/sharp ivory spears in ebony and very elegant sharp ivory inlays w/fingers.
Buttsleeve: 8 ebony spears/points w/the same configuration of sharp ivory inlays as forearm; notice the nice cocobolo inlays under the ivory fingers to match the forearm.
Butt weighs 15.23oz and is straight and very well balanced. I have no idea how many of those elegant ivory finger inlays they had to go through to get the whole ones in place. There had to be many that broke. I think it's pretty cool.
Shaft: full sized Schon shaft in nice condition (schon script in wood above the collar) 4.18oz and straight. The ferrule was cracked so I had Ernie Martinez replace it with my favorite ferrule material, melamine and triangle tip.
Buska rings at A, B, C. and a black w/white spec linen wrap. It has a few playing blemishes but all is straight together or apart. The only issue is that the ring at the joint has popped so you can feel it.
I will do Sold shipped/insured in the cont USA.
Thanks for looking,
Dave
