I'm selling my Leon Sly Custom Cue.

sorry for the crappy pictures for i'm in the market for a new camera since i broke mine.

Very sharp looking sly with all white is ivory. I recently had alot of work done to it by sly, it had a cracked ivory joint, changed out with a sleeved ivory and ss joint. not shown in this picture is a nice black leather wrap with no flaws of any kind. Re-finished at the same time, during the refinish sly took off his signature with the date 04' on it, but still has the S in the hoppe ring. After the war with another cuemaker, the S was no longer put on his cues. Comes with one shaft with ivory ferrule and sniper tip and fiber pad. Points are sharp and even, super dark ebony wood is sweet. New pic's can be sent via message or e-mail.

This cue will come with a free instroke 2X4 tooled two tone case. Asking 1100 OBO. If i left anything out, just ask and i'll answer, i have not been on AZ in 2 years, so bare with me!

One shaft or two? Pics show two but description says one. And is it an original shaft with the same ringwork?
 
i previously inserted the wrong pictures, there up now, the right one's that is, with a few more here. it's one shaft with matching rings, the re-finish was done a year ago, only played with a dozen times since. The cue has a very slight nick in the finish only the size of a pin.

Is there a reason he deleted his signature but left the "S"?

when he stripped the old finish off, the signature came with it i suppose, the s in the ring is slightly regressed, or engraved. so it stuck after re-finishing. he asked me if i wanted him to change it for the small price of 200 bucks, i said no way. 1. for the money, 2. i want the cue how you made it the first time, regardless of accidental signature copy.

Okay. Thanks.
 
this cue is about five-six years old if you send the cue back I will put the "SLY" Logo on the cue free of charge Like I said in the past....THIS WOULD BE GREAT FOR ME AND DENNIS BOTH.:smile::smile::smile::smile::smile::smile:
