This is a 2010 Carmeli Cue with a John Davis blank. Made in 2010. Signed by Ariel with the year near the points.
SOLD which includes shipping. NEW price for this cue would be near $2500 according to JAZZNPOOL.

It is only 3 years old with little play.

MORE PHOTOS ADDED on PAGE 2 that include the joint and ivory spears :)

Condition: 98% No nicks, scratches, dents. This is as close to new as you can get.

Very little play. 90% played at in home. Didn't make it to league much. Have several other cues to play with in league that I don't mind getting nicked up.

DEAD Straight. Including all shafts. Stored in an Instroke case.

2 Carmeli Shafts with rings and brand new Kamui SS tips. 12.75 MM




Veneer colors: black, dark blue, light green and natural
Wrap: Irish linen - White with green speck

4 Ivory spear tips
4 Ivory diamonds in points
4 ivory diamonds in butt

Butt has boxed windows with matching veneers with ivory diamond in center.

Davis Blank - Kingwood into Birds Eye maple
Joint is 3/8 -10 stainless steel sleeve.

Ring work at 4 positions

Total weight: 19.25 oz.

Butt: 15.3
Shaft 1: 3.9
Shaft 2: 3.9


58" length

If you don't LOVE this cue, simply return it in the same condition w/i 3 days and your money back... Just how I roll. No sense in spending this kind of money for a cue you don't LOVE.

I'm in no hurry, I'll sell it to someone that does LOVE it.

Bump for a lot of cue. I've seen Schon's and Jacoby etc. etc., cost more than this custom beauty....

It would easily cost $2000 to make this cue today, Davis blank, with the ring work, the spear tips, the 8 ivory diamonds, 2 shafts, and the veneered windows in the butt.

Bump for a great cue. Any questions let me know...... thanks for looking...

Oh, did I say 2 shafts, and Davis blank, look at the veneers,,, this cue POPS :)
 
A very pretty cue! Lots of cue here for the money! You might want to add a photo showing the entire butt of the cue. Your current photos are not showing the spear tips or the joint. Good luck with your sale!

I have seen the cue in person, it is great looking. From a solid cue maker. No worries dealing with RJ. GLWS

Still for sale. A few trade offers and a few cash offers, but I have to hold the line at $1050.......

John Davis blank $375
2 Shafts $250
12 Ivory Inlays $250
Wrap $ 50
2 Kamui tips $ 60

Total: $985

Now add in the time/effort/cost to take the blank down to cue form, add a joint, add a bumper, add the veneered windows in the butt, add the inlays, add the rings (5) and then several coats of finish.

Now you know why this cue is $1800 from Carmeli. There is $1000 in just parts.
 
That was Ariels first
veneered windows cue. If still straight your price is a steal as the cue would be close to $2500.00 today new. That cue had nice shafts and a perfect balance when it left the shop. The Davis blank was special made from woods sent to John.

OK, here are the new photos as folks wanted to see the joint. FYI. The cue came with a leather wrap (as you see in these photos) but I didn't like the texture and had it removed and installed with a Irish Linen wrap which felt better, and gave it an old school look imho.
