just finished polishing Cambodian Rosewood front and back with Brasilwood/Pernambuco handle.Brasilwood is the premier wood for violin bows,with excellent tonal properties.the Rosewood is much like Cocobolo but slightly less oily and a little higher tone.

this cue turned out to be very colorful,a little more colorful than i had originally planned,but i still like it.it was made a for an AZ member that hasn't been logged on since last July so i have a feeling it will be listed in the for sale section soon.but i will PM him one more time and give him a few days to respond.19.25oz,12.9mm shafts with one Kamui Black and one Milk Dud with yellow micarta ferrules and brass 3/8-10 pin with .308" minor.

thanks Trav.i like the colors and brightness myself,but i just figured it will be a bit much for some.i think the Pernambuco darkens with age too even under finish.
 
i haven't tested this cue out yest,but i will report here tomorrow after i do.it has one of local AZ'er Pooldawg8 tips on it.he makes Milk Duds at an excellent price and the right way.it cut and installed just like an original Milk Dud and i am sure it will play the same too.thanks everyone for looking.

Jeff-pooldawg8 is proud of his milk dud's.
Hope you say something good about them.
I already had to coax bnall in off the ledge from the Colts loss yesterday.
Don't make me have to do it twice in one week.

Nice cue Mason, should sell quick.

I figured it would of been the 73-yard interception return for a touchdown in the fourth quarter with 3-minutes left in the game when they went ahead 31-17.
 
Plain, simple but really awesome. My kinda cue. The beauty of natural colours. When you have great looking woods, who needs the decoration. ;)
 
if i weren't laying 5 points it probably would have been,but for me it was already over at that point

Thanks for the nice words Ted. I really like the looks of masons cues. His cues always have different kinds of wood combos that just flow together real well. Some people will like the milk duds some people will not. Different strokes for different folks, thats what I always say. GL with your sale mason.

I've always said it's not whether you win or lose, it's if you beat the spread that counts.

indeed.

i tested the cue out and the Milk Duds are excellent,exactly like the originals.nice crisp,firm hit with plenty of spin and i really don't think i would ever miscue with this tip.thanks pooldawg8.i highly recommend these tips and pooldawg8.

the Kamui black is nice too.i have installed 10 of them or so and test hit some with them,but this is the first time i have really played with the Kamui blacks.i definitely see improvements in more areas than one in these blacks.they hold chalk better,spin more and sound great.
