16 point murry tucker with leather wrap www.tuckerbilt.com/iii under fancy cues second cue

That's a beautiful cue. Murray Tucker III (note correct spelling) only makes a dozen cues a year and there has been alot of interest in his cues recently. Would you take $1,500.00 for it ? Would you trade it for a duck ? (I have extra ducks)
 
no thank you not for 1500.00 or ducks but glad you like the cue

Very Sweet cue and tell does it play .????? :o
I bet it plays great.
MT does not use weight bolts or 3/8 stud inside the forearm. All wood. He also uses laminated handle with denser woods mixed with maple.

I like them stiff but with a great feedback to the grip hand.
I HATE cues with no feel. Hate those thick ss joint too that klunk and kill the hit. :D
 
Very good hiting cue ,solid love the balance. Murray did a great job on the leather wrap too. His laminated shafts play great as well.

I guess that's what makes a Tucker so valuable. They not only look great and feel great, but they play well also. I wonder if mr. onepocket will take $2,200 cash money AND A Bungee Jumper for his 16 point Murray Tucker cue.....

It would be to hard for me to replace the cue. That would be the problem with me selling the cue.

I purchased the cue from a pool hall in tampa where it was for sale. I purchased the cue brand new it was given to the pool hall by Murray.

Sorry if I did not get back with you. Toward the end of last year my company (I own a steel fabrication and machine shop) has picked up several large jobs that has required me to increse my staff by about a third and buy a bunch of equipment. My free time (cuemaking time) is very limited right now. When I get a e-mail regarding a cue I put it to the side and answer it when I get a chance. Sometimes they fall between the cracks. Last year I only made 5 cues and so far this year I have only finished one. At this time I am not taking any new orders and do not plan on taking any more in the near future. I would rather not make cues than give bad service and give myself a bad name.

God bless people like you MT.
Making cues b/c the love doing it and not just for money.
Pls let me borrow your shaft machine. :D
Your CNC version should get done anytime soon. :D

I guess I'm going to have to up my offer to $3,000 and a baloney sammich. THREE THOUSAND DOLLARS mr. onepocket. That's as high as I'm going, someone with DEEPER pockets will have to take over from here.. dammit ! (Are you SURE you don't want some ducks? I have extra DUCKS)
 
3000.00 is a good offer but still how do i replace such a fine piece of work. like murray said he is not taking cue orders right now. so to get me to come off this cue you will have to do better and no i still do not want the damn DUCKS!!!!!!!!

OneP, I have a beach-front propery in Arizona I'd trade you for that rare masterpiece. :)
That's an ultra-nice cue. Classic design.
I love that classic inlay work by MT on top too.
Look how sharp the diamonds are.
