The cue as a whole is so traditionally elegant, but the rings just put it over the top! A Traditional style cue has been proven time and time again to withstand the test of time and trends. In my opinion, because billiard enthusiasts love so much the history of our colorful sport. Best of luck with this wonderful offering. Great price as well!!!!

I don't know if it's the economy or just the full moon, but we're seeing some nice wood become available like we haven't seen in quite a while. Get 'em while you can. ;)

would you take a car as a partial trade?

If your car is only a PARTIAL trade on this 11k item, then I assume no will be the answer . . . ;) A guy who owns an $11,000 pool cue doesn't tend to drive a car worth less than that. :o

I don't care if you have ivory from butt to ferrule, or put a solid 24K butt sleeve on a cue, you can't beat an irreplaceable Bushka classic imo... Would be the last cue I sold.

Good luck though...

I have played with and seen even WAY more high end cues (as well as all of tikkler's posted here). But "for me" there is no better than the classic style ;-) So definitely will not be any hurt feelings here...

Bump for a great cue again though...
 
question

No doubt you have some real nice cues sir. Do you have
the specs for that cue and a letter of authenticity. Im not
in the market , just and admirer but if I was I would want to
know. Awsome cue and thanks

TAD inspiration

Or is it a Bushka inspiration that Tad borrowed from George!!!!;) Or maybe they both borrowed the design Erine (Gina Cue) does anyone know for sure.

If so I would like to know!!:)

Either, it is certainly a beautiful Claasic Cue, and if were not a broke nit, I would grab immediately.

Good Luck with your sale!!

All 3 of them used those vertical veneers in the early 60s. Ernie for sure would say he started the design and really who could argue (besides Tad) with him? Regardless of who initiated the design or if they all three developed it independently some night in their garages, its a great classic design.

Wait a minute, did Martin use those rings before all three of them?

Thanks

Kevin
