Looks like Phenolic. He used these inserts to keep the weight down.

I updated my listing. I hope this clears up any confusion. I believe Murray calls this cue the "gator".

It is my understanding that he is currently not in the shop...however, I do not believe this to be a permanent hiatus.

Think I will take it!

Glen tried to call you no answer. Ready to deal. I had contacted you earlier in the week about a Frey cue. After reading about Murray decided I will pull the trigger on the Gator.

Congrats Ron...you have now been Tucker-ized! :thumbup: You picked up a real honey of a cue, and I would be shocked if you were not happy with the quality as well as play of this cue.

Should you ever need any work done on the cue, please feel free to contact Murray directly, as his cues are his 'babies' and he really prefers to be the only one to work on them.

Congrats again!!
