Are you sure they are veneers (I'm sure you know your cue)? The only reason I mentions this is because, if memory serves, those were supposed to be re-cuts.

could be

They very well could be recuts,they look like it. I just didn't know that he did recuts way back then. I'm sorry for my ignorance. Someone will be getting a rare cue!

You should be able to se the dif between recuts, and veneers. Hard to tell from the pics, but up close and in hand would be simple. Use a magnifying glass if u have to.

Great cue BTW!
 
very tempting.. does anyone know how many of these were made? I know of two others where the points were cnc and the price is much more.

I like those old JW cues and will share what I have been told. I am not an expert but I have some experience. Lately these old JW cues have tripped my trigger and I have spent the last couple years finding out all I could.

This will be either the 2nd or 3rd one, I have seen. These are indeed, recuts and nothing on it is CNC. The other ones I have seen has been this exact tulipwood, ebony combination. I am suspecting that these were are all made in a group.

Knowing these cues, thats why I giggled at all the "yahoos" making such a fuss over SW and other cuemakers starting to make recuts, like it was something totally new. :rolleyes:

The ones I have seen were pretty rough and they were wanting $1200 or so for them. This one appears to not be 100% but is pretty good shape.

Take that for whatever its worth.

My best to all,

Ken

I wish I had the money for this cue. If you would raffle it off I would be in for two spots.

Bump for tommie, hopefully soon to be in the raffle section.

I know I run alot of raffles,and good ones I believe,but if at all possible I would rather sell this nice cue outright. It is a rare Recut older JW that would probably make for a good raffle but I don't know. Someone please make a good offer and make my mind up for me!
