Cue ID: Valley Top Gun house cues

[thubosky]

Recently picked up a pair of Valley Top Gun 1 piece house cues. Never heard or seen them before and can't find any info online. Just curious if anyone has ever seen them before. Looks like really nice wood quality used to make them.
Thanks,
Tim

Seen a lot of them. They did have nicer wood than the current Supreme model. Never gave the house cues where i played much thought. The old Canadian-made Dufferins were the best. The ebony-butterfly Dufferins make great sneaky-petes.

Taper looks decent on these...the taper on dufferins is brutal, unless you are used to it.

Think of the guys who anchor the index finger onto the middle one when bridging. They would be emulating little hoppe in about no time flat.

Looks like cocobolo.

Yea they play great and look nice! Was thinking maybe they can be converted eventually. So we're these the model before the valley Supremes? I thought it was like a top of the line house cue maybe?
