Is that a Boogie Woogie cue?
Anything with notched diamonds gets me so I like it already.
Looks like Coco to me, red and black veneers and nice points, whats to not like about it?

It is a new cue made for Billiards Warehouse (not Betty White ! Funny)by Lucasi. $250 shipped. I already have one Lucasi so i know about what the build and finish quality will be.
 
It's a Betty White cue. Just before she did 'The Golden Girls' she was in the custom cue business. :rolleyes:


LOL, Betty White has been spinning up cues for me since I was just a kid, nothing like them. :grin-square::grin-square::grin-square:

MM,

Seriously, I love the cue. Black and red Veneers are my favorite, and were Gus's favorites as well(my trivia for the day). I Like the cue alot, notched diamonds, the whole bit. The wrap at the bottom looks a bit funny to me, could be bad lighting or a amature wrap job-I cant tell.

I dont know who made the cue, but if its straight, priced right and well made(hard to tell from pics) it appears to be, then I'd buy it. If you can test drive it first thats even better to make sure you like the hit, I have bought a few cues just cause I like how they looked and I couldnt make them work for me, so I sold/traded them. So do everything you can to make sure you like the hit if its going to be your player( I assume it is).

I never heard of them before, There are alot of great cues out there right now at great prices, perhaps this is one of them, but i just dont know who made it. I dont know every cue maker thats for sure but I know alot of them.


best of luck,

Eric


PS: What I dont like is the pin looks like it was cast not milled down, and the wrap is fair at best, rings on the heel(buttsleve) didnt line up exactly perfect. This is all minor and since its a production cue you probably wont be getting this exact cue anyways. For $250 your in it good enough that if you decide to sell it you wont get destroyed. I awalys ask myself that when I'm buying a cue, "What if I have to sell it?", Some cues I dont care cause I wont ever sell them, others i'm very careful or wont do the deal because I know I'd lose a pile of $$. Your safe here for $250 IMO. I hope i helped you, its just my opinion,' I'm glad to see your enjoying your other cue and playing and buying another cue, welcome to the cue disease.....:)

Fatboy,
I didn't notice that the pin looked cast instead of milled. The cue is made by Lucasi for the Billiard Warehouse so the quality will be about the same as my present Lucasi which is pretty good for a cheap production cue.
Would a cast or milled pin make a difference? Other then strength.
When a cue is screwed together tight would pin strength matter?
