Just got a new Gilbert J/B

Wow, that is a nice one! I have a simple bloodwood one without veneers but I love it, such a great cue. I thought it might be a little expensive for a break cue so I've tried to move to something cheaper to sell my Gilbert but it just isn't going to happen...the Gilbert just feels perfect to me!
I may end up "barrowing" that veneer color combo at some point
looks so nice
looks so nice
A really great looking cue.
I've known Andy, and Vicky, for quite some time now, and without a doubt consider them to be two of the finest people you would ever want to meet. Both are a credit to the art, and craft, of cue making and I'm proud to be their friend.
Although we haven't played in a while, Andy is up three games of One Pocket on me. I shall return. :smile:

That is a very nice Gilbert J/B. I usually don't like colored veneers, but those look great together. Congrats.

I went through Cue Addicts to get it and it runs about $725 with the wrapless handle and the 4 veneers. Best value I've ever seen cause it breaks/jumps/plays like a champ.

Those woods are so beautiful. I really love the BEM and the veneers. I am very jealous, lol. Would love to have that cue.
When I come to Houston next, I'll play you for it!

That's fine. You're giving me 14-2, though.

Go for it!! It looks great under a light but isn't distracting while playing... well... it was when I first saw it. lol. I bet these veneers would look fantastic in butterfly points, too.

I will give you 11-5, I get the breaks and my fouls don't count!
Beuatiful cue you have there, really like the veneers!
Beautiful cue.I bought one considered 'fancy' for $650.It is cocobolo also with the white half-joint,white hoppe ring,and black linen wrap.I've never jumped with it and only mildly broke with it.It plays so good I use it as a player.Plays as well as my Schon,Josey,Pechauer,Rick Howard,D-3 McD,and Jimmy Rempe Meucci.Most comparable play is to the Josey & Schon !!!
