No Dean, Dave was born and raised here in the Shoreline, WA area.....just north of Seattle.

You can find him in the Blue Book of Cues 3rd Edition, Pages 54 and 389-390.....he plays pretty good too

How does this cue play? I've played predator with 314-3s, McDermot GCores, and OB+. I think this is a gorgeous cue, but I don't know anything about custom cues.

Would it make sense to put an LD on this?

Sorry for all the questions. I've never really considered anything other than a production cue.

I'm probably a little skewed.....but, IMHO, I think it will play better than any of those cues you've mentioned

It's a custom build; so, it's unique in the construction and woods being used. This cue is cored with a solid pie laminated maple dowel; the forearm and buttsleeve are Cocobolo; the handle is Thuya Burl; it has a SS radial pin which combined produces a distinct feel and hit.

We can have 314-3 shaft built to match the cue if that's your preference....it just depends on your budget :wink:

I knew David Jones in the mid to late 90s. He was into Chevrolet racing & he was very good at it. I'm sure his craftsmanship has made the shift, because a craftsman can do anything he set's his mind to. David was very good at what he did. I would love to see some of his Cue work...
