Wednesday morning bump 
J&D CUSTOMS said:Larry,
This is wood from Chris Hightower. It is the same wood he uses in his native american bead cues that sell for well over $600.00 to $1000.00.
It has a Gabon Ebony butt plate and is not cored.
These cues are great breakers and with the 13.5 mm shaft , the deflection is almost nill. I have built several of these and all who own one say they hit extremely solid as some use them for even their playing cues.
Someone is getting a heck of a deal on a monster breaker , take the plunge , you will not be disappointed !
Thanx Larry,
Jim
