I have a question, sounds dumb, but something I have always wondered, if a cuemaker is making 2 cues, one a basic design with no points, and the other a very detailed one with floating points or whatever, will they both hit the same?
 
I'm not a cue maker but I would think they would play the same if the only difference between the two are the inlays.
 
they shouldn hit differently or at lest feel different, because he's changing the woods in one of the cues, but you probably won't notice the difference.
 
There will be a differance in the hit, if the cuemakers is using differant woods. Sometimes you can use the same woods in both of the cues your speaking of, and they will still hit differently because of the inlays. Anytime, anytime, you cut a female pocket into the forarm of a cue, and add a different male counter part of wood or ivory, and or other inlay products, it changes the structure of the original wood.

Of course it changes the hit. You can build 2 cues from the same blank and they will hit differently, sometimes they hit close to the same. But never the same. It's impossible for them to play the same. Close, but not the same. A good cuemaker can make them play pretty darn close. This only comes with time and lots of experience.

if what Blud says is true, and it probably is, then cues are like women! they may look the same but they never are! Love it or leave it.
