These are production cues, I'm looking for customs.
Thanks for your offers, none the less
Mezz may be considered a 'production cue', but it is flawless custom quality.
Leon Sly is a superb cue maker that is known for his excellent quality. PM him and discuss what you want and I guarantee that you will be happy. Leon is a real nice fella, and you ain't gotta wait a lifetime to own his cue. :wink: good luck man.
You're going to have to state what you're looking for as well. You can find it a lot quicker if you say what you have in mind instead of just saying, "I want the 'best' for $500". That is a very shallow question.
You might ask, what some recommendations are for fancy SP's or plain janes or even 4 pointed cues in your price range. The more specific you are, the quicker you will be playing with your new cue.
Not looking to design anything. I want something handmade, something that didn't come off of an assembly line, something that one man put his time into to make.
Thanks for the advice and I'll look into Mr. Sly. I have to disagree with you about being more specific. I'm getting a TON of great offers and they're all helping me decide what I want:wink:
Thanks for all the ideas guys (and keep them coming). I'll be making a purchase in the next few weeks
I'll be in the market for a new cue in 3-4 weeks. I'll be looking for a custom cue (read: not a production cue) with a 3/8 pin. I've owned several customs in the past and like the way the big pins play.
I'm not too picky when it comes to what I'm looking for, but I'll know it when I see it. The cue could be anything from a Merry Widow style, to a cue with points and inlays but if it has a wrap, it would need to be leather.
What are your recommendations? post pics if you can
Thanks for helping me decide
You might also want to post in the "Ask the Cuemakers" section you never know who has a cue on hand that meets your specs.
