This cue features a highly figured birdseye maple forearm and buttsleeve, pressed and glazed black linen wrap, and ivory dashed trim rings at joint and buttcap. Weighs 19.06 with either shaft and balances at 18-1/2" from buttcap. Shafts are 12.8mm with Ivor-X ferrules and Triangle tips. MSRP is $750.00. We're offering 20% off = $600.00 plus shipping.

I looked at these cues for along time and contemplated purchasing one. I was in the same boat as you are in now. I loved the way they looked however I never had the oppurtunity to play with one. So in any case I ordered a cue from another maker. Two months after i ordered a cue a friend of mine got a AC cue. When I finally got a chance to play with an AC cue I was impressed. It takes alot to impress me and I was truely pleased as to how the cue played as well as looked. I dont think you can go wrong with owning one of these cues.
 
The Carmeli cues are great players. I have had a couple. While I was playing with my Southwest, I shot a little with a Carmeli for a day or so. I thought the hit was SIMILAR to the SW (I know, everybody says "It hits like a Southwest"...no, it hits like a Carmeli..)...not quite the same, but crisp and responsive. I could have easily gotten used to the cue in a week or so.

Hi Buck...I can't give you an unbiased opinion on Carmeli cues since I sell them and use one myself. Sorry, I don't do trades.

If you purchase an AC cue from me and find the hit a bit too firm/ stiff--I'll offer to have AC extend/adjust the taper on the shafts at no labor charge (pay only shipping to and from me). The 6-point cue you are referring to looks even better in person. Shafts are exceptionally nice.

bump...solid quality of build cue that will play as good as the pointed AC cues...nice figure to the birdseye and easy on the pocket!

Simple but beautiful and will be a good player. Can offer conditional buyer approval upon arrival...pm for details.

No, those were a one time shot. Picked up about 7 of them on Ebay and had Ariel convert them. There might be some nice petes in about a month or so.
