All the time. I also shoot with a custom cue made for me by Al Romero. That cue is also about 15 years old. Of course I have a few others as well. But these two get the most time at the table.

Nothing hits like old growth Maple. There's music in that stuff for those who care to listen...

K,

Tks for sharing

A lot of the "Gold Letter" Joss cues made in 84/85 had purple heart instead of maple handles and were the Joss cues to have, esp once Joss went back to maple handles.

Do you recall the conversation we had about how similar my Scruggs looked to your Joss??

Wow, I just realized my mid-80's Meucci Original is around 40 yrs old as well. Still needs to be refinished too since the varnish is quite yellow now.
