My first truely custom cue by Tim Scruggs. Built to my specifications :) Thought I'd go with a simple hoppe style with a few inlays. Just delivered to my door 10 minutes before pictures were taken. Don't have time for better pics at the moment but here's a few I'd like to share. Oh and a couple of his sneakies, now I have a small family.

Have to agree - congrats!
Very nice looking cue and I am sure you are going to love the way it plays.

You are a lucky man!

Super cue. It really has the old Balabushka style and I always liked the abalone and mother of pearl look in a cue. You will love the hit and playability for sure!
It's like Chrismas I bet and I know exactly what you feel. Joy!
Thanks for sharing

god.. one of my next cues is deffinatly going to have red veneers like that.. every time i see them my jaw drops.. I WILL own a cue like that someday..

and that's with a bad flash, the veneers really come out with good lighting. I have to agree that red comes out very well. Red really pops out well next to black. Also the colors are based on the artistic principle of triadic harmony, aka primary colors RED BLUE YELLOW. I picked a vibrant red as it stands out against black, but a darker blue to help the red but not stand out too much, and the maple veneer is close to a muted yellow. Cuemakers of the past have used this before, (i bet they knew something) but usually it's a darker maroon and a light/pale blue. I wanted richer and deeper colors. If i could get the flash to work it'd stand out better.

I couldn't spend a fortune on design or inlays so I thought I'd do it subtle way by picking colors that work well. There's actually a lot of thought behind the cue.

Chris, I agree with your sentiments about the veneer combo! The veneers on my next cue will look a little something like this: *the inlays have been removed to protect the innocent :D*

Simple, elegant and classy, plus I think it hits great ! Very nice design and it's nice that the TS family of yours has a new member. They're like a father with two almost identical sons. :)

Like the simple design

That, in my opinion, is tough for us to do, but they always look the best is clean, simple designs.

I guess I am meaning restraint.

Excellent cue and what I would be looking for or design.
