Can you identify this cue?

It looks like a late 80's early 90's National.

Identifying cue on ebay?
i dunno about that cue but this cue is definitely a mid 70s Dan Janes Joss and not a Josswest by Bill Stroud.

Really, can you educate me on what makes it indicative of a Joss East?

This is a Joss East design in the 70s to early 80s, seen a couple of this. Bill never did made a design like this. The original buttcap would have indicated a large font inscripted JOSS logo on a delrin butt. The Josswest of this era as you would know, is a J with the inverted W.

Looks like a JW to me, though from the ringwork on the shafts, it looks like one of them may not be original (or JW made). I have never seen a Joss East that had maple boxes in the ringwork like that.
Whatever it is....it is not a "diamond in the rough".
