Meucci Cue ID help needed

Hello.
It is none of the above guesses. Here is a link to one of the pics of the 84 series. Definately not 84-4
http://www.budgetcues.com/archive/meucci-84-series-2.htm
I have around 100 Meucci Originals in my collection, including the one u have. I have never been able to find out any info on it either. It has the same ringwork as my Buddy Hall 5 Rifleman. So it has some age to it. It would have been made prior to 1990 when Meucci changed from Meucci Originals in block letters to Meucci in script, and probably prior to 1980. Mine has the old almost yellow, micarta points (4) with black, red, red, and black veneers. Yours appears to have the slightly newer white plastic points. It has been years and I have never found any info on this model.
If u ever find any info, let me know.

Tis an 84-4
If you go to www.discountpoolcues.com and schroll down to the Meucci Originals, you will find this cue in the 84 series flyer. It is an 84-4.

The reason I did not use the picture from Discount is because it is not a clear pic and does not show a clear picture. The 84-4 has a smooth line on the top and bottom of the ringwork as can better b seen in the pic from the Meucci Archive brochure that I posted. If u look at the first pic in question posted by srober 40 u will clearly c there are black areas sticking out from the ringwork making a jagged appearance. Look again at the clear pic here showing the 84-4. U will clearly c the difference.

I have both the 84-4 in my collection and also the one in question from srober 40. They are definately different. This Q is not an 84-4.

Looks like they had two versions of the 84 series, the first and second. It might indeed be this one from the first 84 series.

Hard to tell from the pic but it does look different between the two photos.

Hi Chris
As part of my collection, I have the actual brochures here at my home. The first brochure pic on the Net simply does not show a clear pic due to the lighting used to take the pic. I have the actual brochure right in front of me as I type. The 84-4 shown in the first and second brochures are identical. If I owned a camera I could send in a pic, but I don't own one. The Q he is questioning is not an 84-4. If anyone wishes to continue to claim it is, well, I have a bridge I want to sell.

I'm going to agree this is NOT the 84-4 that everyone would believe it is. IF u look at his pic close, the black boxes in the logo raise above the smooth top line and falls below the smooth bottom line. The original 84-4, u will see the lines are clearly on the ouside, the black boxes do not drop or raise. There MAY have been 2 different versions of this cue (im not gonna argue that). But at the same time, that design as far as the BOXES are concerned it pretty unique. Show me another Meucci that raises above and drops below the smooth line.......=-)
PS: Also if u zoom in and look at the CHAINS (ring work) at the top of the cue and at bottom of shaft where they are jointed. It doesnt even look the same as the 84-4. Familiars it YES, but look close, its not it at all....=-)
PSS: This cue viewed beside the one from dicountpoolcues, u will see the bumper is also different. Discountcue is basically showing an older cue, but still not even the same ring work...=-)

i would like to venture a guess in saying that it is a LH-2 from the Larry Hubbert series of meussi originals...
its very hard to tell exact because the pic in the link below is so small.. but it really does look similar..

> I had one with rings identical to this,not to mention an 84-4 nearly identical to the catalog cue. The one in this post was a private-edition made for Cornhusker Billiards,which is the same company we now know as Mueller's. Mine did not have any other identifying labels other than the MO logo,but some of the plain-janes had C.B.S.-LTD by Meucci on them. I think it was called the White Knight or something,and they also had a black version,and I paid 119.00 for mine in 1988. The 84-4 that was mentioned earlier is a 2 point cue. According to Bill Randolph,owner of Billiard Pro Shop in Memphis and one-time shop manager at the Meucci factory when it was in Olive Branch,Ms,the ONLY 4 point 84-4 he knew about in 20 years was made for none other than Earl,and he used that cue to win the 1988 Brunswick World Open.

Definitely not an 84-4, I have one sitting here in front of me.
I think it is the White Knight from Cornhusker Billiards. I have some old Cornhusker catalogs around but they are in storage and I likely won't be getting at them for a long while. I have no idea what box they are in.
