i'll be sure to tell whoever it's paint, not real ebony
Exactly...I'd never try to pass one off as ebony. I always tell the customer & give them the choice...most don't mind at all. I like to call it "black purpleheart".:thumbup:

Varney,
I am looking to have a cue built, I am a taller guy, so I want more length 60'...
I am in love with ebony, but I am told that because of the ebony they can't get the cue to the desired weight that I want ( 18 1/2 - 19 oz ).
How much does say PH weigh compared to ebony?
Thanks in advance.

Here is another one I did. The entire 18" forearm is actually straight grain maple to keep the j/b light as the customer desired. When holding it in your hands, even under good light....you can not see where the black joint collar meets the ink. I ran the ink over onto the collar & after its cleared it is just all jet black looking. Remember too, this forearm was bright white....this is only 2 coats.![]()
