Least Prolific Cue Maker

Steve Kornele makes a great cue and only about 60 of them a year.
I do not know alot about his cues but if they are as good as his JP's he is truly underated.
 
I was gonna' say David Tice (not sure about the 1st name...). He makes a really nice cue and I hardly ever hear of him on these forums...of course, there may be a reason for that too. I have some pics he sent me that are in the Blue Book's 3rd edition. Real nice!:D
 
Dieckman stated he does around 12 a year!
What about the cue repairman Joe Blackburn (TN), Al Romera (CA), Dave Bollman (VA). or Sailor (WI)?
 
Richard Harris (BLue Grass Cues) is up to about cue 50 a year and no signs of upping the production.
 
Ron Haley.

Lifetime output of like, 160 and each of them are absolutely beautiful!!! I will officially go on the record as saying that from this point forward, my collection will consist solely of Paul Mottey and James White cues, but I'll make an exception for Ron Haley! (and maybe Tascarella and Manzino):D
 
Way to stand by your guns, Pharaoh68.:p . I will limit mine too, to cues that don't suck.:D

Fun thread guys.

Thanks
Andy

I believed for a long time that Ron Haley would become one of the most sought after, hottest cuemakers on this planet. And that's coming to bare. Another low volume, extremely high quality cue is being produced by John Davis, a one time partner of Burton Spain. He just recently started making cues again. Davis' blanks are in a good many Bushka's. His blanks are so labor intense, his cues, like Haley's, will always be in short supply.

I don't know much about Davis but I'd love to see some of his cues. I do know that Haley makes some true beauties. Every one of them is gorgeous and near perfect in craftsmanship. I stopped by Joe Salazaar's booth at VF this year and saw 3 of them side by side! All of them breathtaking!

Then I saw the pictures of Dak21's cues. 4 Haleys!!! Lucky guy. I think some may have come from Salazaar but I don't know for sure.
