Dale Patten/ Gus blank

Here is a Dale Patten made with a Gus Szamboti Blank. Dale's brother in law was big time player Richie Florence. Dale made the Richie florence cues. Dale also made a small number of customs using Gus Szamboti blanks. By the time I spoke with Dale he had stopped making cues, around 1997 and had one finished but never put the tips on. That be this one with rosewood points and buttsleeve.

Brazilian Rosewood Manzino

This is Bob Manzino's first mitered veneered box cue.
Bob described it as Mint with Chocolate.Brazilian Rosewood, ivory, Abalone,rose gold. I am so very happy with the cue, I wanted to share some of the pics.
The work is very tight and perfectly executed.It also plays great (yes I have chalked it ,and played with it). A close friend said it is the best playing Manzino he has ever hit a ball with(he has a few).
I know this is a very special cue.

Brazilian Rosewood Tibbetts

I am very fortunate that Danny agreed to make a cue for me to the very specs I wanted. The veneers are old maple and pear wood . The rosewood is over 70 years old. Original Cortland for the wrap.The cue plays just like it looks- beautiful. Thank you Danny for a very special cue.
