I'll pay for your new tips- I owe you after my screw up this morning- if you have a Pay Pal just private message me what your tips cost. Good Luck with your cue and your game.

Looks like a nice Cue to me.
the wrap is perfect dont mess with it. and the tips looks fine just scuff them up with some sandpaper so they hold chalk.
later on you can decide if you want to ruin it by making it look new.
i have some original 50 year old tips on cues and they still do just fine,

The a-hole comment aside i think its a classic. Don't mess with it. Put on new tips and keep playin it.
About 20 years ago they decided to sell firewood instead.
This is absolutely right.
That wrap is perfect!!!!
It just needs to be played with. It doesn’t need cleaned, that won’t help it a bit. It’s perfect the way it is. Takes a long time to get a wrap that good.
Cleaning it is a BAD idea

Might be 25-30 years ago now.
I admitted my mistake, apologized for it, and offered to pay for it- is that not all enough for you? Why would you just not let it go at that? " Let he who is without sin cast the first stone". - Acting like a judge, jury and execurioner make you feel good- or is piling on your specialty?
Who is the A- hole now?
You are a stand up guy
Everyone is normal until you get to know them. Especially me.
That is an MO5… I have an MO4 they have pill bumpers. I paid about $100 in 1979. Those cues had the non-coated wraps. Was my favorite. I still have it. Had some work done but should have left it stock. The butt has a slight warp.
What retirement community? In Florida? If you are local to me I have Lepro + Triangle tips. I’ll put it on for you. No charge.

Late 80’s early 90’s. Every Meucci I had from that period had problems. Popping inlays at the least. Warping at the most. My butt cap fell apart on one of them.
That said, I loved the sweet Meucci hit and own 4 Meuccis today.

70’s they were good cues. Anything after 81-82 is bad, as far as I can recall.
Does that sound about right?
I dont think this proves that you’re not as crazy as you thought…
But anyway, lots of these kind of posts on Facebook, and most are hard to believe. But then again, the internet has shown that out of the millions of people who play this game and buy cues, there’s only a small percentage of us that are “into it.”
I’ve got a friend I grew up with and played league who didnt remember that his cue was a Mali and not a Meucci. Could I see him coming back around to play more pool? Absolutely, even though he hasnt played league pool for 30 years. He only played for a short period in his life, went to Vegas for APA, came in 2nd at the annual “big tournament.” But he wasnt “into pool.” Wouldnt know anything beyond a Meucci, McDermott or Mali. Doesnt know a single pro’s name other than maybe Jeanette Lee.
He could easily come into this forum and ask about his Mali, not knowing a thing about. Btw, it’s a plain 4-pt, green veneer Trophy Series.

I only have experience with older Meucci's, early 90's and older, and always loved the hit. Even with all the complaining I hear I wouldn't hesitate to buy one today.
Meucci sponsors Cory Duele the guy is still winning with his Meucci’s.
Guess the band is not too bad.
