What's not to like.......there is nothing about this cue that is not appealing, even though Jerry forgot the wrap.
Folks know I am not a wrap-less cue fan by any stretch of the imagination but apparently there are exceptions.
Lovely pool cue and it really does look masterfully executed, despite the limitations of the photographer.....just kidding ya.
Wonderful cue and thanks for bringing this one out for everyone to enjoy.

I like the colors.
Sleek. Beautiful. Pick one or both.
5 veneers? I have to step into a big pile here and pretend I remember Willies had 5 veneers too!
I was there I just hadn't learned to count yet.
I was only 9?:grin-square:
Congrats,
Nick

Thanks for all the kind words and approvals
I agree with the others. Very classy look plus a uniqueness about it. Thanks for posting.

it came in at 19.5 oz
Gorgeous cue, and that is a nice weight for a full length Ebony cue. Did he core it to keep the weight down?
Jerry said he was doing his best to keep the weight down,
According to Mr R who read this post
"Jim
I noticed where someone asked about the weight and coring. Back in the early 90s. I believe Dufferin went out of business or sold the Biz and I believe there was come cash problems anyway The wood stock was sold by an inexperienced liquidator and I got my hands on 100 pieces of very old ebony 29 inches in length and 1 and 3/8 inches thick for very small money. Ebony is very difficult to dry, dry it to fast and it cracks. It is best to age it in a dry atmosphere. So older is best . This ebony is over thirty years old and with age it also lost a lot of its weight.
With fresh ebony it would be way to heavy to make a full spliced cue, it probably would end up 24 ozs. or more.
On your cue I did core about ten inches x 3/4 " and replaced it with rock shaft maple. I have about 30 pieces left out of the 100 pcs. This ebony may be about 30 to 40 years old."
