Greg....were you able to locate who has the cue now and how the heck did you ever track it down?
I wonder how folks accomplish that and the only approaches I can think of are social media, AZ and
word of mouth......it's a pretty big country and I'd imagine a cue could ultimately wind up anywhere.
Anyway, hope this cue remains in your sights and it ultimately winds up coming back to you.

Yes Matt, I got very lucky that it kept appearing at the ICCS show and was on display at the SBE. I unfortunately sold it back in 2007 when I 1st started having back issues. I sold my whole collection back then which included the Fanelli I'm trying to get back, a Capone that a buddy still has, Southwest, Mottey & a couple others.
I'd probable still be out of pool because my back is pretty bad again, but a buddy talked me into joining his team in league a couple years ago & I got back into it pretty heavily again.
At the time I sold my 2 Fanelli's I figured if I ever came back I'd have no issues getting Paul to make me more cues since we become friends. While I was gone, he unexpectedly passed as we all know. I was devastated and picked up the 2 I have now just because I didn't want to go without any of his cues, especially a butterfly. I also never expected one that was originally made for me and my specs to resurface.
