I have a cue that I would like built at some point.I have no idea what it would cost and if I can afford it. I do not own any custom cues so I have no idea how to begin even looking into it. Any suggestions would be appreciated or interest in helping me my giving me a quote is also welcomed.

I guess it would be considered a fancy sneaky Pete. Ebony into amboyna burl, ivory joint as I have been told the feed back is crazy. I want it to be bumperless with an ivory hoppe ring. I prefer the weight around 19oz. The shaft would have a tip of around 12.5 mm with ivory ferrul. I do not know what I want for a pin because I'm not sure how it adds to the play like if a 3/8-10 plays better then radial or if stainless plays better then brass or g10. I do think brass looks nice but that isn't visible enough to matter much.
Not to many people can do a fullsplice and that cue should be core because of the amboyna burl. You should contact Darrin Hill(Hills Cues). This sounds like something he can do.

the reason I did not give a price is because this is just what I want, if I cannot afford it I will save and sell as many cues as I have to in order to have it built. I know good golden amboyna is very expensive. I ivory probably is too. I just thought it would be a good idea to know how much it takes to get it made.
I don't really have a budget, this is a cue that I have had in my head for awhile so I would just like it to be done right and I know there's good talent here so that's not a problem. As far as a time frame goes I don't have one. If I chose someone that's gonna charge 2 grand I'm gonna have to save my pennies. If someone says they'll do it for 500 bucks ill need significantly less time. I guess if someone is willing to take the time and give me a price and tell me a dreamer how they plan to accomplish it be it cores or full splice I would appreciate it. Custom cues are a new world to me and I wasn't even sure if these woods would work together as a sneaky.
