Up for sale is a mint condition Alex Alpert cue. You can read the review I wrote here last month, but I have had this cue for probably 4-5 months. I have played with it 2-3 times for a few hours each, so it is very lightly played.

I ordered this cue directly from Alex, and it is his 6th cue to date. Alex has somehow leaped years ahead of his tenure with execution, and this cue shows it. I'm asking SOLD, which is a steal for any cue of this caliber and level of inlay/craftsmanship. I always offer money-back guarantee if the cue is not as described.

I did notice a few flaws in the pics, but what you see are glares from the camera, dust, and probably a dog hair or two. There is no damage whatsoever.

Specs:

4 points of ebony into bem
8 veneers (paper/regular) of black, blue, grays - BRIDGED
ebony buttsleeve
ivory hoppe ring
ivory inlays of a "new age" take on ovals and propeller windows
black elephant ear wrap
stainless steel 5/16x14 pin

butt - 15.5oz
shaft 1 - 4.2oz, ivory ferrule w/ pad, triangle tip - 13.04mm
shaft 2 - 4.3oz, ivory ferrule w/pad, triangle tip - 13.08mm

This cue has a nice solid hit to it and is a keeper, but an opportunity to regain possession of a cue I shouldn't have sold has come up.

Do u have any info the maker (location)? Would you or Alpert have any issues with releasing contact info? ...that's one stunning n captivating cue. TIA.
 
OK....that cue is insane. Those bridged veneers are PERFECT.

I feel lightheaded....
 
"an opportunity to regain possession of a cue I shouldn't have sold"

There's something funny about these words. Oh well probably just me. :p
 
Damn fine piece of work.

And is the fact that it should read "should've not sold" not "shouldn't have sold" that bothers you?

I cannot think of too many who do not have a regret or two over a cue they once owned...no matter the reason for the sale. I know that I have a few regrets.
 
This is the first time I have seen this thread, and DAMN!! That is a FABULOUS cue.

I have seen a few of his other cues, but this one is amazing! Like Doc said, those bridged veneers are perfect.

This cue might fast track him into upper-echelon cue maker status, provided it plays as well as it looks.

I find it amazing that a cue sells in 8 minutes...and the thread stays alive this long with people commenting (positively) on the cue...I think A LOT of people are impressed with Alex's work!
