I may have an actual custom made to my specifications this year and I expect to get a break cue soon, but for now this is what I bring to the pool hall with me.
Left cue - My primary player. A Steve Kornele 8 pointer from 2004. The diamonds and dash rings are ivory. A well balanced, good hitting cue. Sometime soon I'm going to have it refinished and may switched from the Irish linen wrap to a stacked leather wrap.
Center cue - An old Adam 4 pointer. I've no real idea how old, but I've owned it for at least 33 years, maybe more. Given to me by my best friend, it looked old when I got it. It currently has a Dale Teague shaft on it (the original has finally warped) and hits stiff, but well. I also have a Russ Espiritu shaft and am thinking of getting an OB Pro shaft as the ferrule, diameter & taper resembles the original shaft which plays very well.
Right cue - A Players cocobolo sneaky pete I recently bought for shady, unfamiliar pool halls where I'd rather not play with something flashy. A surprisingly good playing cue. My game doesn't suffer at all when I use it.
