Which cue would would you buy and why? Remember you have the cash to buy any cue your heart desires and if you spend less thinking you will pocket the cash that doesn't apply.

So which custom maker or production would you buy?
For me anything over 2k and its a waste of money but if i could buy any it would probably be a
Balabuska, Searing , Manzino or a Szamboti.:wink:.

I would by Ray Martin's Balabushka. :D Just a dream though. :( Not sure I could ever bring myself to play with it if I had it though.
 
Showman ebony on ebony gambler.

Ivory handled Gina from the 60's.

Fancy Franklin SW.

qbilder's first box cue with segmented ivory handle.

Something created in the deep recesses of Dennis Searings mind after an Appletini binge.

Then on Tuesday I would really spend some money.

In my dream I got so much jack I buy shit that don't even exist yet.
 
i would buy johns szamboti that he picked up at the expo this year...:woot:
 
i would buy my dream cue. a plain jane tim scruggs sneaky pete from the early 80s. it may not be fancy like all the other cues players want, but thats my dream cue.
 
A high end Eddie Wheat cue. I actually have saved 1.24 million Wheat Bucks so I am almost there. Quick lead time I heard.


On a serious note either a Manzino, Gina, Hercek, Haley, or Searing come to mind.
 
A Mike Bender that I design when I have the unlimited moneys available, oh well back to sleep
 
wait i just remembered i'd pick up that masonh sneaky. the ebony with tulipwood points and a small ebony butt at the bottom. that cue was pretty!!!
 
mike lambros cue
preferably the one he had for sale that he built for himself and
was on sale at valley forge.
 
I would probably spend a good amount of time in design discussions with Tony at Black Boar. Then let him work his magic.
 
I would travel to every exhibition, tournament or cue maker until I found the cue that felt right then buy it. I wouldn't care if it cost $100 or $5,000 if I felt it was the right cue. At the moment I still play with my Viking G27 even with those Customs sitting at home, it just feels the best when playing.

I would get Bernie Mikkelson to make me a custom cue. He has the amazing extreme three shafts. Great cues.
 
If I could buy any cue on earth, I'd want to buy my old fancy Gus Szamboti. I've owned 14 of Gus' cues but this was the only one Gus made for me! I made the huge mistake of trading it off for a Balabushka w 5 shafts and a brand new fancy Joss West about 6 months before Gus passed away. That was one of the biggest regrets in my life. Some of you will remember a thread I started 8 or 9 months ago when I bought another Gus that was made at the same time as mine, in fact I think it was made in case there was a problem with mine so that he could inlay this cue to give me. I love this cue also, but I'd love to have mine back!
