If i were to own it i would be the first to play with it seeing as i hit balls with every cue i own.......so the question is how does the piece of art play???????

like a stradivarius!
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder I guess.
I can understand that the complexity of design, craftsmanship and exotic materials are a big contributor to the value of a cue but aesthetically it just looks overdone to me. When does a cue cross the line from monster to too much?

some people love old victorian craftsmanship and some love ikea!
Rockola trivia:
The name "Rockola" had nothing to do with "rock n roll" music, it was actually the name of the juke-box king himself: David Cullen Rockola, a Russian born inventor who came to the U.S. (Chicago) via Canada.
Rockola began building his fortune in the 'penny-scale' and slot machine business, and later amended his income even further with a little organized crime action on the side. (illegal slots were big business in Chicago)
As anyone over the age of 40 can tell you, Rockola didnt mess around. He totally dominated the juke-box market and quickly became a household name.

I think Bill's response should have been: "It plays like a Rockola!". In the juke box world, they are Szams or Bushkas.
I am with you Kevin. Those JPs are crazy!

Wow, wow, wow! Unbelievable cue! Congrats on that work of art.
Personally, I like the cue... I think.
Its hard to say for sure because you seem to have taken pics that show very little of it in detail at least. Maybe some closeups of the buttsleeve? The handle? The points?
You know... for the cue lovers out there.
I would say very unique!
