My Carmeli Cues

The cocobola points with birdseye maple forearm was my first AC cue purchase some 10 years ago. Than the Black sneaky pete from a top level player that Ariel made for him. Than my latest from the beginning of the year.

The first two were the first cues to have the AC circle logo on them. I was at his shop when he (Ariel ) asked me if I cared if he tried the new logo on my two cues. Why not.

6-Razor sharp cocobola points, birdseye maple handle and cocabola butt section. Two original shafts---one ivory/one aegis ferrule. And one of these days Ariel might send my matching predator shaft that I commissioned at the beginning of the year.

Sneaky pete. Made from an old I believe Dufferin butt section with the white butterfly. Made originally for Neal Fujiwara(pro player/predator rep) to his specs. Uni-lock pin and one shaft. Hits like a brick and about 18.2 oz.

3 hi/3 low birdseye points with veneers. Cocobola forearm. Cocabola handle sectioned 3 places. Cocabola butt with birdeye cap. This is a jump-break cue. Three shafts(one matching predator, one normal playing shaft and one jump/break shaft). Plays great and jumps like a monster.

Hope you enjoy the pics. I've been wanting to put them up here for sometime, but could never get the camera to cooperate.

Thanks, Scott

P.S. someone teach me how to get the pics to show up and not be links......

You mean like this? :D

Simply replace "url" with "img" (for example, [ img]http://i110.photobucket.com/albums/n82/ascooot/P3080012-1.jpg[ /img] without the space after the "[" bracket)

Nice cues by the way!!!

Thanks

Thanks for the nice comments on my Carmeli cues. And thanks for the help with linking the pics. I will have to remember that. To answer the question "if I will sell the sneaky" No. Sorry, not sure if I will ever sell my Carmeli(s). Probably the best hitting cues I have ever played with. Ariel not only builds beautiful cues, but some of the best playing cues I have ever hit with.
 
Very nice

You have a collection to be proud of. Thanks for sharing!! Which is your favorite? I like the ebony point custom cue myself. I bet they all play strong.

Nick not sure about the ebony custom? If you are talking about the center cue with the birdseye handle it is not ebony. The point and buttcap material are highly figured and very dark cocobola. Camera did not take bright enough pictures. Had plenty of light.

Not sure if I have a favorite. I use all of them at different times and for different games. But the one I do use the most is the Cocobola pointed-birdseye handled cue. And yes they all play real strong. Now only if I played as strong as they do. LOL

Thank you Nick for the nice comments.
