I needed to replace a Schön that I had sold, with a new one. I ordered a CX04, and it came Friday. As I expected, a few things were different than illustrated, and I appreciate that. The forearm wood was stained more darkly, and the tulip rings were replaced with Cocobola. The big surprise, was in the diamond inlays in the points, and butt. Instead of the very narrow sliver shape, I expected, I found a much wider diamond with concave sides. Has anyone else seen these recently? I must say I really like them, and the overall look of the cue. It exceeded my expectations. The best part, is the cue has a great hit and feel, as have the other Schöns I have owned in the past. If anything, this one may seem to have a more "sensitive" feel to it, and speed control almost feels intuitive with it.
