Hello, I am new to the AZ forum even though I have been reading the classifieds for over a month. It sounds like everyone knows everyone else on the forum, very cool. Anyway, here is what I have for starters. This is a Jacoby custom cue I purchased a little over a year ago at Billiards N' Bagels in Gresham, Oregon. If anyone is ever in the Portland, Oregon area they really need to check out Jim Oswald's shop. I only used it a hand full of times because I was to paranoid to use a new cue. I didn't want it to get screwed up. So it is in as new condition. This is one of the nicest hitting cues I have come across, which I would attribute to the ivory joint, ebony nose and stiff shaft.
Limited to six total cues custom ordered by Jim.
Flat faced ivory joint, ebony nose and handle with five rather large ivory inlays( only on one side of the cue, which is meant to make it easier to shoot from the same side of the cue for consistency).
1902 $2 1/2 gold coin inlaid in the butt, 5/16 14 pin with a flush pilot in the shaft.
18.8 ounces.
13mm tip with a 10" taper. I don't recall the weight of the shaft, but it is a very hearty shaft. Not whippy at all.
The handle is thinner, not much but noticeable. Great for those of us with hands on the slightly smaller side.
Any other questions about the cue please feel free to ask.
$900 shipped OBO, appraised at $1500. Have appraisal paperwork which will be sent with cue. Also cue will be sent with a basic 1X1 case.
