Pick this cue up a while ago with the intent of doing the work myself. Unfortunately I don't have the time to sort this cue out.
Ob Sneaky cue, the cue is in pretty rough state but I think it could be easily repaired. Butt looks to be some kind of rose wood into straight grained maple. I'm not sure what has happened to the cue but the finish is very patchy, the points have raised a bit and can be felt where it meets the maple, it is very slight though. The shaft is an OB Classic and very much the same state, all the finish from the joint area has gone and there is some staining in this area, again i feel this might be an easy fix.
Specs
Butt
4 point Sneaky Pete style cue
Black butt cap with OB logo (faded)
3/8x10 modified pin
Black joint
Typical OB ring work at B and E
29"
15.72oz
Shaft
29"
12.7mm, unknown tip
3.53oz
Black joint collar with typical OB ring work, faded, no finish on the shaft.
I have hit a few balls with the cue and it plays solid, no buzzes or rattles. Cue does have a slight wobble, I can't see if its the shaft or the butt.
Could be a decent cue for someone with a bit of work, feels a bit wasteful to scrap it.
Price is $180 including shipping, PayPal fees and insurance. If you would like more photos of any particular parts, please let me know.
