Just wanted to take a moment and comment on a couple of cues that I've recently acquired.
First, I got a stained b/e maple with an ebony handle jump/break cue. The jump handle portion is a little longer than typically made in a j/b. At first I was a little skeptic about how well the longer handle would perform. I quickly became a fan of the long handle. The craftsmanship is impeccable. The cue is gorgeous and feels great. I've owned a lot of j/b's. Icebreaker, poison vx, j and j, predator bk and air, and several low end break or jump or jb cues. The Sly is by far my favorite. best looking and performing. I show it off to everybody.
Second, I got an amboyna burl and ebony cue. worth every penny and every minute waited to receive it. If I never hit a ball with it, it would still be a great cue to hang on a wall. But, it hits all too well to not hit balls with it. I am a predator shaft fan so until i get a shaft for it, it won't be used much in actual match play. But believe me, I have every intention of putting a shaft on it. The woods that Leon selected are beautiful and I can always trust that Leon takes good care of his customers in selections of woods used and the layout in which he puts his cues together.
I'm sold...I'm a Sly fan.
