Well, here she is, my brand new Murray Tucker cue. Most of you on AZ figured out who the maker was from the in-production pics I posted from time to time. To see it finished is to see a thing of beauty! I have to say that Tucker is a great guy! Really nice to chat with and loves to talk about cues. Just a true pleasure to work with!
Lots of nifty stuff with this cue: 5 ebony points into an ebony forearm. Veneers of blue, black, and burgundy. Ivory peacock inlays in the points. Flat-faced ivory joint with a 3/8-11 brass pin that is engraved "Tucker". Silver trimmed wood rings at a,b,c,d,e. Black textured leather wrap (pigskin I think). Veneered ivory windows in the butt-sleeve separated by slotted ivory diamonds (I just love the look of the butt-sleeve on this cue). Ivory butt-cap and finished off with a silver "Tucker 05" signature. Enjoy!
