Are these all for sale? If so, please PM me the price on the Gina and Tad.
 
I dunno if this fits in yer spectrum, & I'm only on the fence about parting with it

I'm also no expert and aren't sure of its value...I was actually looking around for the right place to ask in here

It's in fantastic condition, none of the degradation I've read about with these, and I'm quite sure it's all original & unrestored

It's only got a few very minor dings & scratches, aand I really don't believe it's been played very much at all

I've owned it for over 20 yrs, and probably haven't even used it a dozen times

It's always been stored in its case, which has always in my bedroom with me, standing perfectly vertically in the corner

Sorry these aren't the greatest pics, site doesn't take the 1st ones I took, and am short on time now

...can take more pics if anyone wants, when I have a l'il more time later
If the truth be told, there is more work in that cue than any other being offered. They truly built those by hand 100% from scratch. All the while keeping track of all those points and veneers without You tube or cue building books No leather wrap guides, No computer programs, and so on, Plus it's still straight and tight on it's way to 50 years old . What a fantastic testament to Richard Helmstetter. I hope Dick is is well? I have such a great respect for his pioneering accomplishments in cue building. I hear he dabbled in golf a bit too?

Indeed, agreed, so kind of you to say...thanks for that buddy. I have truly loved this cue, since before it even came to be mine

Oh yeah, I actually JUST read something about Mr Helmstetter innovating with some design (or) concept applied to making drivers

Aand yes, this cue is now officially posted for sale, and I pray it ends up with someone who appreciates it as much as it deserves, and hopefully...who plays with it more than I've been able to, cheers 🥂
 
I have a $4,000 budget and I am looking for classic custom cues from HOF cue makers: Joss West, Tad, Scruggs, Ginacue, etc, also interested in any well made unknown cues. Show me whatcha got.
Just sold my Gina and Tad. I do have Scruggs and Joss West.

I have a Dale Patten cue. He made his cues in L.A. and made them for his brother-in-law, Richie Florence. This one has a Szamboti forearm. Al the white is natural. Send me a note if you are interested.
