Yesterday I picked up a (I call it sausage orange wood) SW with a black then yellow veneer going into ebony. It looks like a bright yellow prong and blk/yellow SW. reminds me of a Yellow and black ferrari. It has a black linen wrap on it which is cool but I'm gonna have Tony at Black Boar put a shiny black lizzard wrap on it. Then I'll get pics of it to post. its just 3hi/3lo regular SW with no A/B rings. the rings would interrupt the flow of the black. There aint gonna be another one for along time becaquse Mickey had a hard time keeping the ebony dust out of the osage orange wood, its 99% out but there are a couple black specks. Because of the over all look of the cue they are not noticeable. He isnt in the mood to deal with that again he told me. So its a rare color combo. Laurie said that they would build a cue with that wood again, just not in the near future. She wanted me to be clear that its not a one of one, but its not something they are interested in doing very often or soon-those are her words. So its possible to get one just not this week.:wink:
I love the looks of all SW cues but this one is smoking hot, especially after Tony wraps it. I imagine I could get $4,000 for it, I'd pay that much for it, its that sexy. Tony's wrap is gonna cost. I'm not in it 4 and it dont matter cause this cue aint ever gonna be forsale, I wouldnt take 6,7,8 or even 10K for it-Its just one of those cues that jumped out at me and is part of the permanent collection(I do have some cues I will be selling this year in the fall/winter). it weighs 19.75. I put Black Kamui tips on it, now I need bright yellow chalk and I'll have all my colors right. Anyone know of bright yellow chalk???, the brighter the better.
After Tony wraps it, I'm gonna ask Tikkler if he would be kind enough to photograph it, the up close shots will show the specs, but form 4' away they arnt noticeable. I hope he will photograph it. I own a pile of cues and how often do I get excited enough to post a pic of a cue? This cue is something else, there is not IMO a sexier 6pt. SW ever, now or in the past or future. there is nothing fancy about it, no inlays. just a little ring work at the joint and butt capp. all standard SW work. Its the colors that make it so strong. I like Blk/Yellow cars, cues G-strings, etc. I'm telling you this cue is the bomb for what it is a 6pt SW. that smokes the rest of them, even my ivory pointed one.

Tikkler if you dont want to photograph it, thats cool, I probably should have asked you before this post-but i'm too excited. If you do want to do it, I'll have tony send it to you, I promis I will come to the City to visit you(2 years after i promised). If you dont want to photograph it, its totally cool and please feel no obligation to photog it, just say "No" and were still 110% friends.
