Kreole Freddie Yates Tiger Maple cue...
OK, every cue has a history, but this cue is truly a one of a kind cue, a great player, and it comes with a story. I got this cue over Christmas several years ago while I was down home. Kreole Freddie and I were playing some pool and shooting the crap at Pocket's in Dothan, AL, along with another friend, Larry Krebbs, who owned KO Korral pool room in Enterprise. Freddie had been making cues with David Barber for a few years, then they split up, and Freddie made a few cues on his on. This was, according to Freddie, the last cue he built. I decided to buy it from him. In the following February, Freddie unfortunately went through a series of unfortunate events, and went away for quite a while. This cue has been sold several times, but has always come back to me.
This is a super looking and playing cue. In excellent played condition with only a couple of very, very light bruises (not enough to be a ding) and some shaft bluing of both shafts. Dead straight and solid as any cue you will hit with. Very much like a Richard Harris cue in both looks and play.
Specifications are:
-Butt: 15.0 ounces
-Two shafts, both 3.9 ounces, both 12.7mm, both with LBM ferrules and Sniper tips
-3/8x10 wood to wood flat-faced joint with brown phenolic collars
-Brown phenolic and maple dash rings at all positions, A/B/C/D/E
-Killer Tiger maple (lightly stained) forearm and butt sleeve
-Textured brown leather wrap
SOLD!! Thanks!!
