1 shaft is about an inch shorter than the other 3.
Cue is in 99% condition, and is truly a superb player.
I do not have exact specs yet.
All white is ivory, except buttcap.
Joint is solid ivory. Flat faced, radial pin.
Rings are stunning, and match everywhere.
I think the blue is turquoise.
I am trying to get pics up.

I fixed the phone number. It was wrong before. Sorry.

[BradenK]

I was just told by the owner that the buttcap is ivory as well. Let's hear some offers!

Whats the story.

I was think about making an offer until this showed up in an email. Do you want to elaborate on this.

[Was ask to remove picture] but now i seen it had 2 different handles.

Hmmmm...now it gets interesting.

This cue is not my cue, nor has it ever been my cue. I listed it for a friend, and listed what I knew about the cue. I also listed A.J's phone number, so any questions could be directed straight to the owner. I do not know the story behind the cue either. So if anyone has questions, please call A.J. and ask him. 814.335.2749

Thanks,
Braden

You should ask him

And post his answer. You posted the Cue. It was nice of you to post the Cue. You should be nice enough to answer questions. Your post. Your reputation.

OK.

I talked to A.J. last night, and found out the story of the cue.

The wrap on it now is almost identical to the original, and was done by Jerry Rauenzahn. The original wrap was removed by Jerry, and was re-wrapped with a veneer, thus making the cue wrap-less for a time. Then, the veneer was removed, and the leather was added by Jerry. So, that is the story as I know it.

A.J. has also lowered his asking price, but I do not know what his price is. I think he would like to hear some offers. 814.335.2749


For the record: I listed this cue the day I was leaving for Seattle, and I did not get back until yesterday. I did not have the story about the cue, and honestly did not even think to ask about its history at the time. A.J. is not much of wheeler and dealer, and I honestly do not think he even realized that the wrap could affect the value of the cue. A.J is often honest to a fault. But, I listed the cue, so it was ultimately my responsibility, and I failed. For that, everyone has my sincerest apologies. I would absolutely never knowingly mis-represent a cue, whether it be mine or someone else's. I do stand by the fact that this cue is truly GORGEOUS, and hits a ton. I have made my own offer on it, though it is low, but is all I can afford.

So, again, I apologize for all confusion surrounding this cue. If anyone remains interested, A.J. has assured me 100% satisfaction or a complete refund. So, feel free to make some offers.

I can agree

AJ is very honest and completely trust worthy. I do not know why I called him Ray. I have done a few buys and sells with him and he is a no problem no worries buyer/seller.

Nick,
His real name is Raymond Allen Johnston, so you are right with the "Ray." I have always called him A.J.
