Hi Gang,

Moving another cue of mine, a Mike Bender custom cue. Here are the specs: Five moderately figured bird’s eye maple points into ebony forearm with 4 veneers (black, brown, purple, and maple). Solid bird’s eye butt sleeve with a black phenolic butt cap. Flat-faced black phenolic joints with silver ‘rail road track” type rings at A, B, C, D, and E. Black with white speck Irish linen wrap. 2 shafts at 13mm and 19.0oz in weight.

The playing shaft has some chalk bluing and a linen ferrule. There's also a slight wobble on this shaft, but it doesn't affect play. I took the cue out this evening and ran out a rack without a problem. The other shaft is unused and has an ivory ferrule. Cue comes with Bender's joint protectors. This is a beautiful looking cue that is in excellent condition with no dings, dents nor scratches. The linen has been pressed and is silky smooth.

Here are a couple of pics of the cue. I will take more and upload them Saturday evening or email them to those who request them. I have a standing offer of $1100 on this cue and would like to field any offers of more. I am not interested in trading unless it is for an Omega/DPK or Southwest cue of the same specs as the Bender (weight and shaft dia.)

Nice cue, I like the veneers, color coordination is great. I favor Mikes cues, but off course the pockets are empty at the moment. Very nice cue, nice price also, it will sell fast, I think. Good luck :D
 
Thanks for the compliment Jeffrey. This is another cue that is tough for me to let go, but I'm reorganizing and reprioritizing my cue collection at the moment.

All: My cue purchase from Ricky went perfectly. He's exceptionally easy to work with, reliable, and shipped very quickly. I'm sure you will receive the same. And anyone else out the who knows Ricky, be sure to chime in and endorse this guy, we need more like him.

Thanks for the kind words Mike. You were a true pleasure to work with as well. I am glad to hear that you are enjoying the Skip Weston.

I have not but would in a heartbeat. Ricky is without a doubt one of the good guys and I don't need to meet him to know that.

Nice cue and nice price.
