Will do Sir. I would love to see that cue in person. I hang out at Clicks south, closer to home for me.
I'll give you a holler maybe this weekend? Do they have free pool on Saturdays like they do at Clicks south?

Chaz,
I know Chris, I only live a few miles away from him and he's done some work for me before. I will eventually get a Nitti but not anytime soon not with the economy the way it is.
I am under the weather right now and don't think I'll be playing pool this weekend but I'll give a call next weekend.

NItti Cue

Very nice cue and new design.

I picked up a used ebony 8-point Nitti cue recut with ivory points.
It was refinished before I got it.

It has been a great cue. His inlays are sharp pointed - not just rounded over ends based on the bit diameter used.


I would like to see some photos closer up of those veneered points.
Eight veneers sounds like it could be a Guiness World Record.

Actually, Chris uses the same "black paper veneers" as Ron Haley and I believe Tony Zinzola has in the past as well.
 
Pretty much , nothing ground breaking but adds alot of fine detail and shows off the sharpness of the miters. Theres a fine black bordering the larger 'colors'. It does add quite a bit of difficulty to the mitered boxes tho as every minute segment of each veneer has to line up prefectly as opposed to say , just 3 larger veneers.

I will get some close ups . . . up. :)
 
Few slightly better pics. . .

I like you taste in cues and your hands on planning of the cue paid off BIG. This is one of the nicest Nitti cues i've seen in a while and i've seen some nice ones.
