Can you help identify this cue?(NEW PICS)

I'm trying to see if anyone has any idea who made this cue.
Cue Stats:
-3/8-10 extra long pin, I counted 15 threads
-Ebony forearm with six points
-THere is a silver dot inlay in between the top of the point and the inlay at the top of the point.
-Points are stained curly maple
-Has some nice ring work at locations C and D(refer to pics)
-Butt cap is a screw in style(I don't believe many cue makers use this type)
-I was told this cue was made in the '80s but who knows, it's definitely made in the 80's or later

I really like the design of the cue, but i'm trying to figure out whether it's worth refinishing it or selling it. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

The points are done the same way as a Mike Gullassy I am trying to pick up from a friend. Other than that I am not real sure who it may be.

I've seen Espiritus and Schulers with very similar point designs, but Espiritus rarely have 3/8X10 pins, and the bumpers are push in style. Schuler had his own joint design.

Good luck. I will be interested to find out who it was made by.
 
Yeh, I kinda already had ruled out Schuler myself...thats an easy one. I have had a couple of names tossed around at me such as Nitti and Tucker, but I really would have no idea.
 
I don't think it's a Nitti. I've never seen Chris use that type of ringwork before.
 
If it's late 80s or early 90's it might be Abear or Teague's work. Has the looks a feel of some of their stuff I've seen. IMO, doubtful on the other suggestions mentioned.
 
If a cue maker doesn't mark their cue anywhere visible, do they sometimes mark it under the wrap? I'm just wondering if I should take the wrap off to see if there is a signature or something.

I just figured that if I plan to have the cue refinished, I might as well take the wrap off. I just don't know how often cuemakers will mark under the wrap. I'm going to wait this one out. Hopefully someone will know something.
 
looks like a...

looks very similar to a Bert Schrager I used to own. He made some cues in the early 80's with big spears at the tips to hide the off length of his turned blanks. and his bumper system looks simlar to that. His joint pin is 3/8x10, usually micarta or ivory- so show us the joint. Just a thought.

good luck
