Let's see who else has a cue for under 4k that was made by Franklin and KERSENBROCK
Please this should be long gone. ..

Kersenbrock?

Nice cues, but from the LOA's provided by Laurie Franklin of South West, l can see no mention of David Kersenbrock being involved in the making of the cues.
Maybe I missed something, because if David was involved, these cues would go way up in value!

Yep, but I always thought he left SW in the late 80s...

In 1976, David made a cue for Jerry Franklin, an accounting student at U.N.L.V., in exchange for repairs to David´s car. Soon the two were making cues together based on David´s cuemaking philosophy. In 1978 David relocated briefly to Arizona and then to Caliente, Nevada. He worked alone in a stone walled structure he built himself. By 1981, when Jerry Franklin opened his shop as South West Cues in Las Vegas, David began sending fancy inlayed cues for shafts and finish work. David´s engineering genius contributed to the setup of the South West shop. Many of the Kersenbrock visual traits were incorporated by South West as well. As a result, many South West cues over the years have been sold as Kersenbrock cues. After David left South West in 1988, he moved around the west coast, making cues in Van Nuys, Caliente, Phoenix, and even in L.A. working for Bert Schrager. He was in none of these locations for more than a year, and eventually settled in Chicago where he currently lives and works.

The OP states that one of the shafts was made by Kersenbrock. If you look at picture #2, the shaft on the right has rings that match the butt. The shaft on the left has slightly different rings. Perhaps it was made by Kersenbrock, the only thing you can say for sure it that it probably wasn't original to this cue. There's no way to verify the OP's claim.

Better pictures of the cue would help especially around the joint pin area. Wondering what the hole in the brass pin would look like if the cue was built in 1992.
