hi,

im going to buy a bob frey sp, but it must come with a smooth leather wrap because i swet (sp?) alot.

now i can't descide on the wood that would look the best with a leather wrap, so im looking for pictures of a Frey sp that has a leather wrap.

ive got one picture of a bacote frey with brown wrap that looks very nice.
im looking into a ebony with black wrap
or a cocobola with black wrap

on cuesnthings website there is only a picture of a linnen wrap, so anyone who has a frey with a leather wrap please post some pictures.

Bump to the top for you...I just bougt an ebony bob frey and i'm thinking of adding a black leather wrap to it. Its my new dream cue and I would like to see some pictures before i mess w/ it.
 
Just a word of caution... if you send your cue out to have a wrap installed make sure you know where you want it to start and stop on the butt end. I had a leather wrap put on a beautiful sneaky (Ebony into bloodwood) and they did it to a standard size which cut into the points and made them really small. I had assumed they would of started the wrap at the base of the points. :( My fault for not being specific about the wrap. Lesson learned. Hope this helps you avoid the same problem. Kenny Koo is getting some great reviews for his wrap work if you're shopping for someone to do the work. Tiger is also good as well as Scot @ Proficient Billiards. Post some pics if you get it done!!
 
Bacote looks very nice in a wrapped SP, if you send it out put blue masking tape where you want the wrap to start and finish, draw start and stop arrows on the tape to avoid confusion
 
Get it built that way.

Good luck,
It is not like it is a custom cue. Get one built with the leather or hope your cue does well under the KNIFE!

Bob Frey does some of the best leather wraps I have ever seen. He has taught many cuemakers how to do leather without visable seams. He has over 30 years experiance in doing leather wraps. JP
