Well, I finally got around to getting Jerry -R- to build me my next player...After years of playing with half-splice old school cues, I tried out a full splice player a couple of months ago and realized I had been barking up the wrong tree. I've always admired -R- cues and their old school, classic look and traditional construction, so I contacted Jerry and put the wheels in motion to build a bullet proof full splice. From the first email and the 25 that followed, I've never been more impressed. He makes you feel like you're the only customer in the world and he's skipping breakfast to jump on your project.
I've ordered an old school bumperless Brunswick 26 1/2 Trophy Cue, 60" (30-30 split), 20 oz, full splice Brazilian into straight grain maple with a 5/16 x 14 SS joint. The wedge will be in abalone, as will the diamonds/dots in the points (like the Mosconi Bushka). The veneers will be classic pre War Brunswick Black, Orange, Green and Natural. Burgundy elephant ear wrap. As promised, exactly 10 days after I confirmed the order, he sent me pictures of my cue, now resting for the next 30 days before any more cuts. Excited is an understatement...:smile:
