Interesting Cue Find

My bad habit of finding and buying odd cues has gotten the best of me this time. I found this unique little cue on craigslist and picked it up out of curiosity.

This is a very neat cue made by Myron Yoshigawa (Yoshizawa?). He's a builder/repair person down in Riverside, CA from what I know. The butt is a little rough with the finish/condition. This cue has definitely been used! I purchased it from the original owner who said it was made to his specs back in the mid 90's. It looks like a house cue blank, points aren't very even, but it is one the most heavily modified "sneakies" i've ever seen!

SPECS: 11.5mm ferrules (some sort of linen canvas based material) very smooth taper, good shaftwood, rolls straight, 3/8x10 standard pin, brown phenolic joint, ringwork all around, joint protectors all around, pressed linen wrap, curly maple buttsleeve, additional extension (bumper unscrews), also the forearm unscrews similar to j/b cues.

Not the prettiest cue, but it plays well (despite the small tip size). Might keep it for a refinish and re-wrap project. If you are interested in this cue, please PM me and I'll give you a good deal.

****If you have any info please share. I would like to know more about this cue.
