What a stupid statement. You obviously have absolutely NO KNOWLEDGE of cues or cuemakers. What do you play with - a Fury??
Richard Hsu is an outstanding cuemaker out of New York; I have one his hi-end cues in my case RIGHT NOW. Beautiful points, Ivory joint, Ivory ferrules and ivory buttcap. The butt itself is almost exactly like Roscoes - top-grade, highly-figured Cocobolo which Richard spent years normalizing and turning.
He makes everything piece of the cue himself, by hand, in his one-man shop.
And his stack-leather wraps have other CM's scratching their heads. They're so perfect, like concentric circles instead of overlapping pieces.
The hit of a Hsu can be compared to ANY top-notch CM in the business.
I wouldn't dream of selling mine, as Richard's cues are sure to appreciate in value.
Roscoe, that's one hell of deal on a very fine cue.
BTW, it probably is an ivory buttcap on yours. I've seen alot of Richard's cues, and he likes using ivory - especially next to that gorgeous coco.
