I posted my 2 Monte Carlo cues here, the Adam Icon is smaller on the later one with box on the bottom stacked, not spliced.
I believe that is a Decal cue, not real inlays. DX series

Hmm ok thank you, friend's cue he got quite a while back I think. Anywhere I can look up the DX series, my googling is not coming up with anything.

Very cool!
The Adam Willie Hoppe cues are cool. I just hate it that they stamped those darn numbers in the wood.
Very cool!
I think I have a couple with the stainless collar and brass pin.
That's a pretty cool design.
I would love to see a better pic of the points.
I came across this one this morning and grabbed some quick pictures.
Sorry for nasty pictures on the floor. Probably a hair or two in there.
I am not yet set up for taking cue pictures and just grabbed some shots while having my morning coffee.
Adam CB-25 from the Adam Superstar Lineup. Used, but like new condition except for some chalk staining on the ferrule which I have not cleaned. Personally, I think it is the nicest cue in the line. I am a fool for dashed rings. The only thing I would criticize in the design is the lack of a matching ring at the A joint, which I would really love on this cue. To me, it is simply missing.
Interesting that the butt sleeve windows (windows?) are actually done as rings with inlaid dots, while the matching forearm windows are inlays with dots. Same aesthetic achieved 2 different ways. Probably easier/quicker/cheaper, less labor intensive, to do the butt sleeve that way rather than inlays, I guess.
These are among the cues/cases I lost records about. I don't remember where or when I got it. I also don't remember where and when I got the Fellini. Is that what is called "buggy whip" leather? I'll be storing a different cue in this case, and have a nice 1x1 for this cue.
