Hey all! This is my first FS/FT transaction, so, let me know what's available and what works best for you. I hope my previous postings on this board stands as testament to my character.
This cue is in like new condition, no more than days of play. I'd describe the hit as very crisp, with a very satisfying noise classic to Schon. And the cue plays forward balanced, overall just great playability. The ringwork at C, D, and E are very unlike the STL-1's I've seen with usually a b&w check, whereas this one is a metal stitch like in their higher-end models.? IMO I think it makes it look much classier. Also, if you're in to beefy shaftwood, this one's got it for sure--the shaft feels super dense when holding it.
Total weight: 18.4 oz
Butt weight: 14.25
Shaft weight: 4.15 oz
Tip: Elkmaster pressed Milkdud
Tip size: 12.85 mm
Balance point: 19.5 in
Joint: 5/16x14 piloted stainless steel
Over a sale, I'd really like a 3/8x10 G-10 pin, wrapless, but am open to all trades. Something with a lively hit, LD characteristics. Or maybe a newer Whitten case? I dunno, surprise me! Just throwing it out for the Fates to decide.
Given the economy, I think it would be great to be able to try out something new, without everyone having to put out a lot of dough. However, I would value this cue around $400, the ringwork, being a unique weight from the factory, and shaftwood make this cue, hands down.
Thanks for your time!
