Rare Murray Tucker Sneaky

[howardthedick]

This particular cue is Bois de Rose into a lovely BEM. It is crafted from a full splice blank that Murray built himself..and may well be the only BdR full splice like it on the planet. BdR looks very much like ebony from a distance, but it is actually a black cherry color with grain. Bois de Rose is a sub species of Madagascar Rosewood, and it is my understanding that rosewoods from Madagascar are now on the Endangered Species list and are no longer being exported from Madagascar.
