I would go with Elephant or Sting Ray.

The Elephant would be back with its' ivory.

The Sting Ray could also be sanded to expose the white bone under the skin making it look like inlaid ivory. It would also keep the white speck look.
 
Black textured lizard wrap.
By the way your cue looks awesome with the linen wrap.
Just my .02
 
leather wrap

If it's possible, you (and the installer) should try out several wraps to see what works best. It's much easier to 'see' and feel what it might look like when you can lay the wrap on the cue. You might like a light colored elephant skin, or a dark colored elephant, or a black Italian calf skin or Stingray or Bison or.. you get the idea. If you're sending it out, maybe the installer could send you pics of his recommendations that way you can make an educated guess. Just my .02.
 
i would probably go with elephant or lizard . ill take a look @ them when i visit the cue maker. ill make my mind up when i see them.thanks guys.
 
I would go with black embossed lizard print and have Kenny Koo (Flyingsnail here) do the install. He put one on my Scruggs and did a fantastic job. The seam is invisible. He can take some pics of different wraps laying on the cue and email them to you for review and selection.

Good luck.

Who does the cork? I played with a Mc Dermott one time with a cork wrap. Best wrap I evered played with. Haven"t seen one since.
 
that's a very nice looking cue. It has a somewhat traditional look, it's a classic. Adding a leather wrap such as lizard, elephant etc; will take away from that classic look. I would think just a black textured leather would be great. It would still be somewhat traditonal and keep the classic look.

Just a thought.
