Looks like a cheaper Asian made cue, 99% sure it would not be ivory or bone. What pin does it have?
I'd bet that its a KaoKao. J&J has sold a ton of cues like this. Brand new it might have been 125bux, maybe. Good playing basic cues, nothing more.
It has a mucci style joint it is made of bone i thought it was ivory
It does have bone for the butt a mucci style pin i know its hand made
Do you know a pool player jhonny furber chicken man
There is no such thing as a hand made cue.
They are all made using machines.
That pretty much nails the cheap Asian cue bit, many of them used the 5/16 x 18 pin. It's would not be bone, or any other natural material, but plastic.
Can i add another picture so u can see its bone u can see where the marrow went through it i asked my friend he said same joint as schon my bad
I agree with the others it looks like a modern import cue. General rule of thumb is American brand production cues have a logo (even if the factory is overseas), custom cues have a signature and/or logo, and import cues are unmarked.
Some plastics also look like ivory. If you look closely at a meucci joint, it seems to have grain like ivory does, but its plastic.
The only modern cues that used ivory were custom cues. No production cues, either USA based or import, used them. Unless you go back to the antique Brunswick cues from 1900, that's a different story.
