I obtained an unused Scott Gracie box style cue earlier this year- all ebony and ivory with incredible ivory boxes, dice, and propeller inlays- it is one the nicest pieces of workmanship I have ever seen on a custom cue and it plays real well- simply a flawless execution in every respect- I heard that he dropped out of the cue business due to his wife's illness and has not returned to the business. Sad, if true, as he obviously had tremendous talent, based on this cue that I obtained.
