Guys,

Anybody got a 4-point Rauenzahn player out there? Ivory ferrules and stainless half-joint preferred....but interested to see what's out and about.

4-pointers only, please. Looking for something along the "classics" line.

If you have one, or know of where one might be, hit me up via PM.

Muchos gracias, ya'll.

Dees eez verry funnee, Amigo!

Ya see, remember the classic 4pt -R- that I bought from you? The one that hits like a dream now that she has Kamui tips?

Well, I sold it. Then I missed it and developed a bad case of SELLERS REMORSE.
I mean I was going through DTs. I really needed a hit of -R- and fast.

So I bought it BACK from the guy. Actually, I traded him for a much more expensive -R- cue!!

And I'm soooooo effen happy to have it back! It's my player.

And no, I will NOT sell it back to you, now that you have also contracted Sellers Remorse!

(Oh yeah Jerry is making a few for me right now. Should have the first one in the 6-8 weeks. Nothing you would like, though. They're all 4pt Ebony into fancy BEM w/4 veneers, half-joint, Ebony butt......:D)

heheheheeee

Von,

You're a mean-spirited S.O.B. .....and I don't blame you for wanting to keep it. Seller's remorse is an understatement, for sure....

You're right, though.....the -R- cues you have in work are ugly as hell, and you couldn't pay me enough to play with one of 'em. Matter of fact, if I were you, I'd be embarrassed to show them as my own.

Tell ya what....send 'em both my way, and I'll dispose of them quickly and painlessly.....just to save you and your reputation. I'm there for ya, sir.....and you're welcome! :)

Will do, sir. Thanks!
 
LMFAO!!!!!

Luv ya, man!!

FWIW, I had the shafts cleaned, one new ferrule a new wrap put on the first cue, along with the Kamui's. SA-WEEEET.

Not that you'd like it........................

Well, fine - since I have more coming --- MAKE ME AN OFFER.

Seriously. I'd never list it for sale, but I'd sell it to a friend. Or you. :p

I've got several -R- cues but, the only plain 4 pointer I have is my playing cue at the moment ;)
Hiya Ken,

You beat me to the punch, chief. I was about to PM you right now!!

I've touched base with Ross....and the other one is nice...but not quite my style (big pin and all).

Thanks a ton, sir!! Just for giggles...wanna show me your playing cue??!! :) ;) :)

Here's a few pics of my -R- Collection

The Ebony cue in the foreground is my current playing cue ;)

If you're really having trouble finding a player let me know......I can always shoot with one of the others or have Jerry put me on the list for another

There are a few of the half joint cues in that series of pictures.
How does it compare to the full joint cues completed by Jerry?

Sorry Mark - but I have to ask (just for information and not to get a cue just yet).
Myron
 
1/2 joint vs full joint

Hi Myron,

The only full joint -R- cue I have is an older one with a 5/16-18 pin vs the other 1/2 joint 5/16-14 pin style cues. I was using this top cue in the pics which is a Cocobola 3 Pointer Jerry made a long time ago (recently refinished) love the hit but wanted to play with one of these 1/2 joint cues.

I've got a very similar McDermott "Balabushka" prototype Ebony cue with a full SS 5/16-14 joint and I would say that the hit of this 1/2 joint -R- cue is slightly softer!?

It's very subjective but, I really like the way the 1/2 joint cue plays. I've got another TS, Frey and a RB cue with the full SS joint and would say pretty much the same thing -- all these cues play great -- it's just a personal preference :rolleyes: -- I like the way SS jointed cues play :eek: :D

For the $$$, I don't think you would be disappointed with one of Jerry's 1/2 joint cues -- that's a sure thing Player's bet!

Take good care,

Ken ;)
 
They all do nice

I have a half joint sneakie!
$????? not for sale.
I have a ebony forearm and a titlist color cue coming soon. I was going to go with the regular full piloted joint.
Theyare close but the 1/2 joint might have a little less deflection.

All PMs responded to as of this morning. I had no clue there were so many -R- cues out there.........they must play nice, or somethin'!! :) ;)

Thanks for all the replies, thusfar....and I will be picking one out by the end of the weekend.

Bump it on up.....
