As a lot of close friends of mine know I was involved in a bad off road racing accident Nov 2009 that took me out of being able to play pool like I used to, and have been selling most of my collection, except cues made especially for me. As a result I am not looking for trades of any kind--just cash to rehab and get better. I take checks from people I know, but prefer money orders, wires or cash. I'll pay the fireght CONUS, you pay frieght at cost if offshore. Best way to get ahold of me is my email clif@allmetalaz.com


Up for your consideration are two very famous Bill Schick cues that Bill built for himself that many have seen over the years. One is the famous Gambler and the other is the Balabushka Tribute. Both have seen playing time in Bill's hands and Buddy Hall's when they used to travel on the road.. They are truly Royal Pair and I'd like someone to own them that appreciates what they have and not split them up. The Gambler I know has traded hands for over 10k a time or 2 and worth every nickel. Specs weights and all that jazz to serious individuals. Offered at the very reasonable price of 14,900 for the pair

Hey Cliff
Good to see a post from you. I thought you got rid of all your cues. Those are both beautiful cues. Drop me a line sometime.

Well you know you've wadded it up bad when your shoulder belt loosens and your bare chin tacos a MoMo racing steering wheel this bad

While this is not me, this is a very good enactment of how I crashed- we love flying these things- sometimes we have a mis-read,

In retrospect, you have to be a gearhead to understand why we do what we do and love it so,even though it could kill us

I love looking at these cues. they are so beautiful. I recently got a couple of Schick's (not as impressive as yours). They are top-notch in every aspect!!
GL with sale.

1. These Bill Schick cues are top notch.

2. I have done biz with Cliffy and he is g-o-r-g-e-o-u-s.

3. I think I got 1 and 2 mixed up but I'm too lazy to change them.

4. Glad you are still here with us after such an impressive (in a bad way) accident.

5. G/L with your sale.

Best,
Brian kc
 
Looks like Barbara's old Schick!

Wish I bought it. It was gone before I knew it was being sold. PM a price on that one please. I may know a buyer ask Deano too.
Good luck with rehabilitation. I can relate.

Which one?? and I will accomodate best I can
 
Wow Cliffy these are really NICE! I NEED THEM! Now to figure out how to get the $14k together! Ron
 
Here is the tale of the tape

Bushka Tribute

Butt 16.3 Oz 28.75"

Shaft 1 3.9 oz 12.96mm 28.75”

Shaft 2 4.3 oz 12.94 mm 28.75”


Gambler


Butt 16.6 oz 28.75 inches

Shaft 1 4.0 oz 13.0mm 28.75"

Shaft 2 4.3 oz 13.04 mm 28.75"



The Bushka cue is the straightest cue I have ever rolled on a rail, the gambler only slightly less so. They have similar weights and lengths (57.5) truly in vintage style. The Bushka tribute has newer shafts made from Bill's old shaft stock. these Cues are far from being clubs, there is a lot to be said about how old school plays

Gambler was made in 76, Bushka was made in 1978

My letter from Bill states Buddy Hall played both cues late 70’s early 80’s when he was not under contract with Meucci
 
THAT'S SOME SERIOUS SCHICK RIGHT THERE!!!

Love these 100 times more than his other works as these show his roots!!! Classy, CLEAN, and traditional! TOP NOTCH!!!!!!

Just a nickle or two short on cash right now, need anybody whacked? ;)
