I disagree with Tom, about it being inferior. It's that way in color only.Just because it's got some dis-colored grain, doesn't mean it's an inferior piece of wood. It's just differant. It can be and most of the time is, just as good as the ebony that's jet black. Just a little off color...
When your talking of cues that sell for hunderds of dollards and up, what's wrong with spending more money for premium woods. Some cuemakers are just 'cheap". Not all, but some........They are in it just for the MONEY.
Hey Blud,
As you can read, I never said that wood is inferior just because of it's color. I was talking about avoiding to save money on inferior quality wood...
So please don't interpretate my words the wrong way.
When I pick my wood, I look at different aspects of it, wich I rate it's quality by; like grain, growth rings, cathedrals, knots, density, weight and also the color.
But I never said I was grading my wood just by the color of it!
Never mind the "cheap" cuemakers...
