I was not going to sell this one as it is way too nice to kick around with, but a new cue project with Mr. Tascarella, and too many cues leaves me at this decision. So, I've decided to offer it here. A 1994 Richard Black Bushka, 4 point ebony, 4 veneer, silver ringwork with ivory at C and D positions.2 original shafts w/ivory ferrules (freshly redone by Pete) 5/16x14 piloted, with genuine black lizard wrap. 58" total length. Shaft diamaters are 12.84mm and 12.85mm, measured mid ferrule. Cue weighs 19.1 and 19.2 oz respectively. Superb balance. Both shafts are immaculate and straight. Butt has NOT been refinished and the cue is a true 97% or better condition. Pete told me that this particular one is an outstanding example of Richard's work. I played a couple of racks with it when I first got it several months ago and was put away as a keeper. Plays just like you would expect. It's got some chalk dust on the tips from being in the case since the shafts were done, but no play.

I will have the cue at Valley Forge in a couple of weeks if anyone wants to see, as the pictures here do no justice at all. And yes it comes with the original black presentation sleeve and joint protectors from Richard.

E-mails replied. Thanks for the interest. Richard Black is still for sale. Cue will not last long at Valley Forge at this price:D

The quality of some of his work has affected what his cues sell for, even the good ones.

Best of luck with your sale:)
