I am like most here always trading and selling and buying cues. I got this cue in a trade and it is an awesome cue. I would probably keep but I already have a Gina with a linen wrap which is my preference. The Gina never ceases to draw attention. It plays exactly like my other Gina which is great.

The cue is Gina model 17A, which Ernie uses great birdeye forearm, and 5 ebony points with 4 veneers. The veneers are bright and clear as shown in pics. The leather wrap is perfect and as close to seemless as any I have seen.

The butt weighs 15.40 OZ and the shafts are 12.54mm at 3.7 oz and 12.70mm at 3.8 oz. The shafts have ivory ferrelles and moori tips. All is straight and it is the real deal here, no disappointments, and I will return $$ if problem, and many on here can give references. Comes with Gina 3 piece J/P.

Price is $1600 OBO or interesting trade, especially JW, but really looking to sell as I have a Schick deal I have been working forever. I have larger Gina shafts if that helps but the cue is an awesome player and I would like to have an AZer to have it.

Thanks,
Ken

Gina - My email

I am getting tons of IM for more pics. It would be best for me if you would send requests for pics to my email and then I can get to you.

ken_4fun@netzero.com

Going to play in a benefit tourneyment for a friend whose house burnt to the ground. I will tell you how sick us pool players are.....the second thing out of our mouths was..."Were their cues okay?" (The first was, "Is everyone okay?")

We are all brothers....wierd ones, but brothers all the same.

Not to talk out of turn, sir...but I believe Ginacue uses a 5/16x18 on their piloted joints.

The one I had was an 18...as were the 2 others I've seen.

Picture requests complete so far

Guys -

I think I got everyone the pics they asked for if I missed you please send request again.

Alot of interesting offers and I am considering all.

Please keep them coming, but cash is king.

Offers...

I have got tons of offers, but nothing confirmed yet.

If you have serious interest in cue pm me now.

I am home this morning and if you want to talk about it pm for my number.

Thanks,

Ken
 
One last try to make a deal....

I have several offers including trading cues and cash, and I am evaluating but weekends are made for playing pool, and weekdays for making deals!

I have been asked repeatably for my bottom dollar, in an effort to be fair to everyone I will tell the deal, if it sells great if not, that is okay because this is an awesome cue.

Bottom dollar is $1500 + shipping for the cue. If paypal is used I would expect you to pay fees. I have been told that $1600 was too low, and now I dropped it another $100.

Again I have tons of references here and on ebay. I really hate to list it there but I guess I might try it if nobody here wants it.

$1500 for a Gina and from a top top reputable seller....+ no one buying. What the heck is going on with our business? Someone please buy this cue quickly and restore my faith in the cue market.
 
I know Gina cues used to be one of the best playing cues around in the past. Does anyone here play with a Gina and care to share some experience? Are they any good?
 
Cue deal

All -

The pending deal fell through the cue is still available. I am supposed to hear from another tonight but as right now nothing is confirmed.

Ken
 
In response to the post about how they play, my opinion is that they are among the best players out there still; top 5 at a minimum. Ernie has been making cues for a long long time; he knows what makes them good.

In fact, if I had not just bought a house and had two kids, I would buy this cue. Great deal, and you would be hard-pressed to find a better player. In fact, my current player is a ivory jointed Gina. My back-up is generally a steel-jointed Joss West.

Good luck with the sale.
 
Inbox emptied

Hello Tallen

Thank you for your input. I am acquainted with older Gina cues and I know about their playability. I appreciate that you can share your experience.

I was just wondering if the newer ones that are not the fancy Gina cues if they are made by Gina himself or perhaps under his supervision by one of his apprentices and if they are still as good as the older Gina cues. I do not assume that he makes all his cues or know whether if he has apprentice or not or if he still makes all his cues personally. Any current information about Ernie would be great general information.

I suppose the seller has been getting a ton of PM as his in box is full. Please do send me a pm or email with regards to my offer.

Thank you

Best regards
Chris
