This is a fancy Skip Weston cue, cocobolo forearm, long points come with three flawless veneers, ebony-maple-ebony, not sure what the yellow, or gold points are made of, maybe Osage Orange, but definitely not maple. Two perfectly straight shafts, ivory ferrules, both around 12.8-13mm. Everything white on this cue is made of ivory, except the buttcap. The wrap is genuine ostrich-leg leather. The inlays are very exquisite, made of gold and ivory, and then surrounded by cocobolo. Thanks !!

The yellow in the cue is satinwood.

Good show, Guy! I know you have been looking at Skips, and this one is quite unique. First tme I have seen one done in satinwood, let alone a coco nose. And, of course you know, that pics don't do squat for Skip's cues...they really do need to be seen in person to be truly appreciated. The bonus is, they hit pretty darn sporty too!! Lol.

Cool beans, Guy! I think your jaw is gonna drop when you first pull this baby out of the box....it's just amazing how crisp all Skip's lines are.....inlays, points, veneers. You'll have to let us know how it plays once you recieve it...definitely a nice original design from Skip. Take some pics when you can and post them in the Skip Weston thread in the gallery. I'll be looking forward to your review!:cool:
