OBO


(better deal available for local cash pick-up)


The cue is 19.4oz and 19.2+ with each shaft respectively - (549g with shaft "A" and 545+ with shaft "B") the butt is 15.4 oz (437g) and shaft "A" is 4.0 oz (112+g) while shaft "B" is 3.8+ oz (109+g)

Balance point is fairly neutral @ 18.5"

Both shafts are 12.75 mm, straight together and apart.


Dave Kikel re-finished this one back at the end of 2008 ~ beginning of 2009 and replaced the tips (for the 1st time) w/ WB tips.
Woods on the original owner's (yes, I have this 20+ y/o paper) work order lists as follows:
Pernambuco nose
Purple Heart points (2 orange 2 black veneers)
Holly (diamond inlays)
Ebony ... (Honestly, I don't see this wood present, but maybe the double-black veneers are ebony instead of dyed ...)
4 points, 4 veneers up & down with 8 Holly inlays and decorative rings at the joint (AB).


New from Dave would be just under 2 Grand, but this is an older cue that is simply in very good shape with fantasic wood.

The cue "hits" like all of Dave's early cues; which is to say that almost all players generally like the hit (I understand this and the wood selection is the reason for Dave's fame). Personally, I think this one has a slightly nicer "resonance" than most.
I'm open to CASH or CASH+ smaller cue trade.

For what it's worth, I think pernambuco is one of the best hitting woods I have had the experience of playing with. I have a few cues by the same maker and the pernambuco cue plays better than all the others. Those that have played with one feel the same way.

Thank-you for saying so; the cue has a lovely resonance.


:cool:
 
Don't be afraid to trade

I'm open to a partial trade that involves your cash and smaller cue.
