Schon Cues

This is the logo on a brand new cue, out of their shop, that is currently for sale. It’s obvious the quality standard is nowhere near the Runde or Clarke eras It looks like a child did it. Sad ☹️

That logo is awful, grotesque, hideous & Schon should eliminate it. Just stick with what works and don’t try to reinvent.

p.s. The cue in the photo is a closet queen built in 1984. I switched from steel to playing ivory joints 15 years ago. But it
does have a unusual provenance and if Bob Runde sees this, he’ll recall what a nightmare my cue order became but
ultimately in the long run, Bob and I became close acquaintances. I wish I had ordered a Runde cue made after he left.

If that's their logo, they are going out of business. Looks like some Chinese knockoff.

Clearly Wisconsin has repealed its child labor laws because that was done by an eight-year-old.

Or its photoshop and we're being trolled...

I wouldn’t know how to do a photoshop to fake something. I can zoom in a take a screen shot of the logo tho.

Very...

Are we sure that the cue is not a forgery? I've never seen a Schon copy, but in the last week, I've had two different people on FB attempt to sell me BMC cues that had 3D printed but caps.

I’m not sure of anything in this life but death and taxes. However, this is another Schon Unique listed on Seyberts with a logo that looks just as bad.

I must admit, I bought a new schon about 8 months ago, then had the opportunity to buy a ec era schon and the difference is very noticeable. I like my new one, but love the old one
 
Schon should replace every cue butt with this grotesque logo at N/C for anyone with a cue horribly adorned with it.
