This cue in 59 1/2" overall, butt 30", 2 ivory ferruled shafts 29 1/2", and weighs 20 3/4oz. Butt 16.5oz, shafts 4.25oz. Barry tells me that these are the
exact specs his dad (Gus) played with. There are a couple of very small nicks in the butt sleeve that I focused on in the pictures. You have to look very
closely to even see them. Otherwise it's pristine and untouched!
I've owned 14 different Gus Szamboti cues myself and was even subpoenaed to court as an "expert witness" on them back in the late 80's and I honestly
believe this is the best player I've ever picked up! Gus was one of my mentors when I first got in to cuemaking.
I will let the cue alone go for $8500 (Cash, picked up in Cincinnati) or include the "It's George" leather case that Gus shipped it
out in originally for $9000 (Cash, picked up in Cincinnati). Will consider hand delivery, Negotiable.
You'll never find another one this sweet and it's priced to sell. I can be reached at (513)442-0015 to answer any questions or you can PM me here or
for that matter I'll try to respond to any questions posted in this thread. Here's a link to the story when & how I purchased this cue and a couple more pics.
