I love this cue. BEST PLAYING CUE I HAVE EVER HAD. Very elegant but not over the top. I shot with a friends Cog a few years ago and wanted one ever since. I was afraid his would play difrent than mine but they play close to identical! Wow! Pics are from my phone.


 
Is this a newer cue or one of the older Joe Gold cues? Either way it's very nice and inlaid Cogs like yours are getting harder to find. I owned one a few years ago and I hate that I let it go......
 
I get the pleasure of hanging out on occasion with Joe at the shop. Some of the cues that come out of there are flat out amazing, on top of that he's got some of the best road stories you've ever heard. He made me a special cue with three shafts last year and I have had lots of compliments and offers at the same time. Great looking cue, more importantly great playing cues!

It's new. I love it. Every one that has hit a ball with it has been amazed at how it plays . I'm very happy.

Joey's cues are built to a dimensional standard that is as good as it gets. He is and has always been a very sick perfectionist in every thing he has done in his life.

His formula for making his cues sets a benchmark concerning playability and beauty. What more do you need!

The color of G10.
The old is green, the new black.
Someone tells that the old cues hit better...
I've try many cogs, some are better than others.
It seems that the more "upscale" and has the hit more solid, maybe Joe chooses the wood according to the value that will give the cue: the shot then shows it.
However, even the worst cog that I have tried, it is always a good cue
 
All play good

The only difference in the cues is the time they were built and the pin color. They're all built to the same standards they've always been using ONLY perfect materials or the cue gets cut in half and will not leave the shop.. Saw him do that to 3 cues in the last 2 weeks even in front of customers and their hearts sunk... If it ain't right, it ain't right... As far as the playability of upscale vs. plain well I was playing with Joe 2 weeks ago and he told me I could play with a plain ebony with maple handle cue that he was finishing. Let's just say when I was done, he wasn't allowed to put that cue for sale... I pick it up tomorrow. One of if not the best hitting cues I have ever played with.

I am betting that Gold feller took you over to Marie's and played you on the table he paid to have rebuilt with the balls he has stashed behind the counter.. He's a hustler, you better watch out! I have one of those plain ol Cogs myself with three shafts, ebony forearm and butt with a birds eye maple handle and the new ring work. .Sweet!
