I think I may have fallen in love with this one; everything seems so perfect,at least
for my particular tastes in pool cue specs, design and just a truly superb cue-maker.

Awesome looking cue. Just the right amounts of fancy and traditional.

So I'm browsing the Forum today and see that this TAD cue is still available which seems absurd.
This is a stunning example of how majestic Kohara cues truly are & this cue's weight is just ideal.

My question is on the boxes. The veneers don’t seem to line up or meet in the corners. Very unusual for a TAD.

Looks to me like he used the same veneers he used in the points. The spacing (i.e. black thin veneer) appears to be the same between the green and purple woods in both the points and the boxes?

I could be wrong though.

Look at the corners of the boxes closely.

Is that an ivory joint?

Don’t get me wrong. It’s a very nice cue. I own the exact one but in a steal joint.

I did, and all spacing/gaps align with my comment about the veneers and CavinTan's comment about not using miters.

And for the record, I would also prefer mitered corners but I don't believe this is a fit and finish issue but rather a choice by the cue builder.

If this isn't an ivory joint, I'll be stunned and amazed......a custom like this would surely command such.

 

[ThinSlice]

Generally (never seen one) Tad’s are not ivory joint.

Is the cue made by the father?

 

[lmf123lmf]

i think it was made by Fred.

i think it was made by Fred.

This cue would have been built in late 2007, to early 2008. Tad was very much alive. Cue is still considered a TAD era cue. Even though Tad wasn’t fully participating in a lot of the building.
