Whoa!

It doesn't make any sense, how pretty this cue is...absolutely none. Thanks so much for sharing.:) Oh yeah, hope you have fun at the show too.
 
Simply Stunning...
Nice looking cue and it surely is a good looking High End Cue.

Enjoy your time at the ICC,
Myron
 
Hello Ken, What can I say except I am speechless...Bob Manzino is absolutely the finest cuemaker of design and detailed inlay work I have ever seen. That butt sleeve is magnificient and the joint caps are....I can hardly wait to get to Vegas to see the entire cue.

Congrats on the new cue. I have to admit I'm somewhat envious.
 
I actually have the distinct honor and privelage of being able to say that I held this cue in my hands last night. I looked it over very closely and I have to say that this cue is by far the most beautiful window cue I have ever laid eyes on.

Bob Manzino outdid himself on this one. The craftsmanship on this cue is excellent. The silverwork, mother of pearl, ivory... its all stunning. And all of it is elegantly done. This is one loaded cue that does not look too ornate. The ringwork is impeccable. The silverwork is second to none.

This could easily be my favorite cue to date. Congrats Ken! This thing is perfect!!!

Top Shelf.......200 Proof

Bob's work is by far in a class with very few. (3 maybe 4 builders) If you don't have one his of cues now.....I would suggest getting in line!
There will be..... if there isn't already....a demand that will make no collection complete without one of Bob's pieces of art work.
His work is already becoming and WILL become one of the most sought after cues.

Keep up the the fantastic work.......!

Disclaimer........just my three cents worth of opinion.......
 
This is class. To me, this is how a cue should be decorated because the small surfaces need delicate and inticate designs. I like the engraving.

Real nice cue there Ken. Bob's finely detailed inlay work in that cue is simply outstanding. IMO, he pushes the envelope of cue design in way that appeals.

Admittedly, I am not much of a fan of fancy cues, but this is pure simple elegance. The work is intricate and doesn't overshadow the cue all. Just beautiful. Congrats on the nice pick up Ken.

Bob's work is incredible... He out did himself on this one...

Ken, that's a stunning cue and among the most attractive (at least to me) Manzinos that I've seen. Very "delicate and fine". Would love to be able to make it to the show and see it, but alas............that nasty little 4-letter word.......work.

Ken,
That One Definetly Looks To Be Everything You Said It Was Going To Be. Absolutely Stunning. Are The Rings Mother Of Pearl, Or Silver?
