I just recieved this today and it is in like new condition. For those of you that don't know about this cue, Bill only made 3 of these cues and I think Tommy and Will each have one. This is the most unique cue that Bill built in my opinion. I am excited to add this to my McDaniel collection. Randy
Beautiful cue and a no doubt representation of one of the most beautiful tables Brunswick made. The original Kling cue is in California with a matching Kling table! Mine is Ebony and Ivory. The one you have, like Will's and Jack's, is a masterpiece and a rare cue indeed. Thanks for showing it off, I believe Johnny Kling would have been proud to own one.
The combination of Ebony, Ivory, Mother of Pearl, Bird's eye Maple, and Cocobolo is something you will never see done so gracefully in another cue.
i remember talking to bill
and he was thinking of making a kling cue
but i never heard him mention doing it
his cues always had a nice hit or feel about them
i had a really fancy one that tommy rey bought from me
he was and is one of the best players in town
and he still plays with it after some 20 years
