Hey AZer's,
For the guys who can't make it to the ICCS show here's a preview of the brand new creation from Bob Manzino. "EDEN"
I have to give a special thanks to Bob for letting me work again with him on the design. He brought this one to a new level of insanity..
Picture are impossible to take of this cue...

Red Amboyna body.. Incredible amount of weaving silver, which photo's don't pick up. Tahitian Black pearl, and believe it or not, that is Red Amboyna weaving in the center design..

Best,
Ken Kerner

Gorgeous. Do you have any pic's that really zoom in to the wood? The amboyna scrolling is incredible. Unbelievable the kind of know how that has to go into turning all that metal without wiping it all over the ivory. And cutting those pieces into that huge chunk of ivory...
The kind of detail work that Bob, Tony, Marcus, etc, are doing... Can you imagine chucking those pieces up in a lathe and turning a bit into them? Talk about getting out of your comfort zone!!

Hi Steve,
Thanks for the nice words..
Bob really thrives on a challange.. I think I pushed him close to the edge on this one..
Best,
Ken
 
Whilakers thats a dandy,how many cue makers in the world can do something like that?I can't help wondering how many hours it took to make this outstanding cue. I feel compelled to award my precious and covetted ATTABOY to you for buying and Manzino for working

Make that 2 ATTABOYS

congratulations on the new cue, ken!
mr. manzino, and yourself, make a formidable design team.
lookin' forward to more pics after the iccs debut of "eden"!
 
That does look like a difficult cue to photograph, but by looking at your pics and using my imagination, yup thats one hell of a cue! I like last years cue better-only because I'm not into cues with vines and flowers. I can appericate the level of detail and how much more work/time goes into them, the tollerances have to be dead nuts on or game over. Cues sure have made some big steps recently. For a few years it was kinda flat now the bar is going up every year. The Recent Black Boar Steve just recieved and this cue have set the bar alot higher.

congrats buddy and have a good time at the show.

Ken,

I think Bob Manzino just outdid himself, and made his best cue ever! Great choice of materials, design layout and execution. Knowing Bob, I bet it hits as good as it looks!

I look forward to seeing you (and the cue) at the ICCS next week.

Take care,

Will Prout

Hi Will,
I have to agree with you saying this is his best cue ever..

Unfortunitely..

Going to the show will have to be a last minute decision for me now.
Since I received critical news on my Dad's health..
Best,
Ken Kerner
 
It's a bird, it's a plane,......it's Superman......No it's Bob Manzino!!!!!!!!!!!

Ken, your Manzino is absolutely stunning.....everytime I see a new Manzino it exceeds the previous...but then all of Bob's cues are masterpieces! This cue is so perfect in design,execution and sophistication....pure elegance.

Bob Manzino is one of a kind and each and every cue he does is special.

Hail to Bob Manzino.....

Ken, sorry to hear of the news concerning your father, I wish you and your family the best.

Sincerely,
Scott
