What an awesome cue! That's my favorite cue posted here on AZ recently. Ernie is my favorite cue maker, and this is an amazing example of his work. I bet it plays as good as it looks, and I bet it looks better in person than pictures can show. Ernie's work is so precise and its all done without CNC. Congratulations on your acquisition. I am curious what this cue's current market value is? Please PM me if you don't want to post publicly. I have a collection of Martinez cues and am looking for more.
