I had a chance to take this cue for a test while in Chicago...

I will say the cue is georgeous in person, the finish and fit is perfect. Upon hitting some balls it actually felt like a soft hit but when opened up on the Gold Crowns it came alive. I thought that it had a dead feel at first, and I will say that compared to my personal cues with sumo tips it did. But when applying some shizzit behind the shot it really became a pocketing machine. The cue likes to be used with a firm stroke. Probably after some adjustment it could be gotten used to. The shaft diameter was the only deterant to this cue for me personally. I prefer a 12.7 mm. or so shaft dia, and this cue was 13.12 mm at the tip and 13.3 just behind the ferrulle.

I am working a deal on taking this cue on trade fpr a wrapped custom I have available, and if anyone is interested I will be asking $600 shipped and if not I will be having the shaft turned to my liking and adding it to the collection.

I closing I will say that the question of value is up to the purchaser, but as far as peoples opinion of the cue it got rave reviews!!! It is a looker.


Nice job Kevin keep up the good work!

Thanks for the review Joe. I just now saw this...I can't believe I missed it when you posted it. I wondered what people thought of the cue at the WCO. The soft hit is due to the Sniper, a quick tip swap will change that for you. Thank you for posting sir.
 
Joe did you get this cue? Is it available? I absolutely love this cue and have no doubt is plays as tremendous as the other Varney's in my personal collection. PM me if its for sale.
 
cue came in, and is heading to a buyer in the uk.. thanks to all that asked.

Kevin you have done a fantastic job on this cue, and I will be speaking to you soon to build me something that matches my game
