Nope, but it is an interesting cue. Never refinished all original, except it had the wrong type of bumper. Chris sent me the right styled one.
It came with 2 original shafts, non-screw off tips and 2 made by Phillippe. It was exactly what I wanted with "Original By Palmer" without someones name.

Interesting question
Mike -
Believe it or not it was non of them. Started with an old Meucci, then 2, etc. That got me started. I always try to trade up, so I trade a cue + cash to get most of what I want. At the time I was living in Springfield, Missouri and EVERYONE was playing with local cuemaker Andy Gilbert cues. I asked him to build me one, and the journey began.
The Pfd cue, is another strange story. I go to ALOT of tourneyments, play in some but in the PRO tourneyments, obviously just go to watch. I met a guy there that was starting to write a book. We got to talking and next time we met he had me writing for 1999 Billiard Yearbook. It was an excellent book but a financial disaster.
I told the editor that I really didnt need the money for writing, and he had several cuemakers that were short on cash (or so they say) and wanted to trade cues for advertising in book. I got the Pfd for writing and then worked with Paul Drexler on building me a cue with the gift certificate from book.
LOL, funny how life works out isnt it?
