Here is my new Masonh cue that I received last week. I was really impressed how well this cue turned out, especially this being one of Masonh first cues. The finish on the cue is nearly perfect and the tulip wood is highly figured. This cue plays even better then it looks with being a crisp clean stiff hitter. Nice cue Mason! Keep up the great work.

Cue looks great! Mason's work is impressive

Is that a standard G-10 pin or one of the radial versions?
 
Dang!

That's the one I was eyeballing when he posted up some pics. Really sweet cue!! Good deal and congrats. Looking forward to seeing what else Masonh puts out. He does some quality crafstmanship.

looks like a 3/8x10
 
Very nice cue there my friend. Your collection is starting to grow. If you're letting go of some, let me know. ;)
 
it is a 3/8-10 but it has a .308 minor diameter.the shaft is drilled with a .308 bit instead of .312 and then tapped and the result is very nice wood contact all across the pin,95% or better they say.it will fit other 3/8-10 shafts but it fits this shaft better,the threads in the shaft are actually flatter and more shallow compared to a regular 3/8-10.i used to like the Radial pin the best,but i have come to like this one better.thanks for the kind words guys.it is almost surreal seeing my own cue posted here and people actually like it.it still hasn't sunk in yet.

If my wife ever finds out how much I have in my cues...I will have to let some of them go.:mad:
 
Since I tried a 3/8x10 G10 pin, that is my preferred pin for my cue.

I also like that Brown Linen based Phenolic Joint Collar and Butt Cap. Really goes well with the colour of Tulipwood.

GET USED TO IT:D .

Your choices in wood is outstanding and the execution appears DYNO.

take care:)

That is a BEAUTIFUL cue! The Tulip Wood/Ebony comination in a full-splice is stunning. I also have to say that I like the fact that the cue is not loaded with inlay work that would detract, in my opinion, from the beauty of the wood; just some nice understated decorative ring-work. I don't know if it's just me but it seems that a lot of new cues are just loaded with complexity. Sometimes it seems like a contest to see who can inlay the highest number of complex CNC shapes into a cue. Everybody has their own tastes but I find a certain elegance in simplicity.

Beautiful work, that's a cue that anyone would be proud to own.

Give me ur wife's number quick. ;)

Honestly, that's a really nice cue and I'm partial to Tulipwood. You know who to PM when you decide to let it go. :D

Or you can just let HER go! :D

I love the sign in the pool hall I go to:

"I got a pool table for my wife yesterday"
"Best trade I ever made!"

Of course MY wife doesn't see the humor in it. I don't really know why. :confused: :D
