Question for Scruggs experts

[Shooter08]

I know he did

You are apparently unaware, that Gus Szamboti sometimes put dots on top of the points of his cues. Very fancy cues in some cases. Are you as uninformed as you seem to be?

, hence my like of clovers. Next? BTW, the ones not floating above the points, pretty sure they were fuckups. Cue plays the same, who cares.

Nice tribute cue by Treadway!

I am NOT a Scruggs expert, I had one and took photos. Either mine was fake, or the one in question is, or Tim changed logo stamps.

The logo in your picture is Tims second gen logo. Both the one in the orig post (first gen) and yours look legit.

The difference was in the method of engraving. Tim's earlier cues had engravings that were filled with either paint or ink. The color did tend to wear over time, especially if the cue was used. Later ones were a smooth technique. Yours is correct.
