The grain looks like it matches, so it might just be a clear coat problem. @sam74 can you give us more details?looks like a cheap house cue that someone epoxied a piece on the end to make it longer.
but in reality, it probably since the lines line up is someone cut it and maybe drilled into it for some reason. like to make the butt end lighter weight but couldn't thru the end as then the bumper wouldn't have a place to screw into.
tomato stake or if it hits good then sand off the epoxy and play with it.
A Frey would generally have the "F" logo on it somewhere. You can see more detail here in the video: https://www.crossroadcues.com/product/bob-frey-true-sneaky-pete/It might have been a house cue at one point but is being advertised as a Frey sneaky
Can't really tell from your one picture, but it seems like something that a refinish from Proficient would fix right up.And it's a little heavy for me but I agree thats hard to buy without seeing or hitting in person other than a extremely low bid
