chuck starkey cue with purpleheart shaft

[desi2960]

this 20 oz cue is very, very stiff because of the materials, but also the different dimensions.
this cue is 56 1/2 inches long. [ i have a 4 by 8 table and have no problems with the length ].
the joint is a bit larger and the butt is a bit thinner. the butt is 15.6 oz and the shaft is 4.4 oz and has a 12.8 mm moori medium tip with no ferrule.
joint is elk.
the butterfly style splices are only on one side of the handle, and also has a piece of elk.
if you buy this cue and decide you would like a ferrule i will install one at no charge. but first please try the no ferrule.
$385.00 delivered.
thanks for the interest in my cues.
chuck

hello,
nice looking cue but i was wondering
what is the reason to make joint and but cap thicker?
thanks in advance
Yan

thicker and thinner

the joint is thicker for stiffness and more weight foreward. the butt is thinner for less weight at butt.

Hi, I read in an earlier post that you own a jewelry store and was wondering if you had ever done a cue wtih faceted stones in it.I have been faceting for years and have been concidering trying to find someone who does it.

triley, at this time i am building a rosewood cue with bar bell that are of solid gold and each end is set with a diamond. cue will only have a total of 8 diamonds but the diamonds will weight a total of 1.50 carats.

Good Luck With Sale

I have a cue made by Mr. Starkey and would highly recommend him. The cue I have is extremely beautiful and plays very nice. I like the shaft without a ferrule. And the price---I feel like I almost stole mine! It was well worth it.
