My understanding is it's prounounced like "sean".

On a surf trip I ran into a couple of German girls back packing through the united states, I tried to call one beautiful, and said it like that. They didn't understand. I showed them in their translation book what I was trying to say, and they started to laugh. Ill never forget they pronounced it like shoe (like the kind on your feet) with an N on the end of it. And the O is long, so like shooen (first part like shoo fly).

Well....I am not posting a picture of my Schon cue...But I am keeping an eye on this thread to see if the cork sucker that stole it from my house decides to post a picture of it...

I will say that it was an SLE model.....(only 12 made)

I have yet to see any of the other 11 that were made.

Good thread here. Anybody own one of the ebony on ebony sharp-pointed ones that have been made the last few years, I think it's the 1106 model? They have a red, green or silver veneer. I'd like to see some pics if so.

Is Schon pronounced like RON or like TONE?

When speaking English, I usually hear it pronounced so it rhymes with Ron.

I believe in the original German, it sounds more like "shurn", but with a soft r. Can someone who actually speaks German shed light on this? Axejunkie, don't you speak German?

Yep, that's correct. Soft r with a smooth o sound. Without the umlaut, the word translates to "already" and rhymes with "cone".

Just don't ask me to pronouce any more German or I'll have a pile of saliva on my keyboard.
 
axejunkie, i too am interested in this model and probably purchasing one soon. I think its called the SP 1106 and the only colors i've seen are red,blue and grey. Would love to know any info on this model if anyone has any.
 
Vermy and Axejunkie, get it from here: http://www.erikleecues.com/schonsp.htm
Erik is a cool dude and he has all three colors! Listed for 675.00, but I bet he can do it for around $600 delivered.
I'll probably order the STL-15 from him next week. He's got the best prices I know of.
