I went to his pool hall many years ago in Vallejo, CA. I don't know if it is still open or not. I had always heard good things about his cues. GL with the search, hope that little tidbit helps.
i have a couple of them, he built about 22 -23 years ago. I played with one for about 3 years full time. he used a Gus for the dimensions. Billy is a good friend of mine.
