Ebony on Ebony Southwest Tribute Cue

[LPCUSTOMCUES]

Here is a cue I just finished up for a customer.
The customer wanted an all ebony SW style cue and this is what I built for him.
The forearm is cored with maple and the handle is cored with purpleheart.

Here are a few specs...
Brass radial pin
SW style phenolic joint with ringwork
Gaboon ebony forearm
White/blue/white veneers
Gaboon ebony pointwood
Single white ring above and below the gaboon ebony handle
Gaboon ebony buttsleeve
Double white ring
Black phenolic buttcap with SW style ringwork
Both 30 inch shafts are flat laminated with matching ringwork.
LBM ferrules and Kamui tips

Here are a few pics...

I hope you like your new cue.

Thanks for looking.

Great looking tribute cue...What does it weigh and where does it balance? Looks like one really solid cue to shoot with.

Very sharp cue Lee:thumbup:

Why did you not use 3x8/11 pin? is it customer request or your choice?

The weight it 19.5oz
Not exactly sure of the balance point. The customer
wasn't sure what balance point to use, so he left it to
my discretion.
Its very well balanced and is a solid hitter.
