A cue for Sherwin with ivory butt, ferrules, and a 5/16-14 ivory jt. Sherwin waited over 7 years for it. Jeff

Beautiful burl! I'm certain Sherwin believes it was well worth the wait.

Jeff, can you show us the joint?

A pic of the joint and the butt cap, the grain was very nice. thanks for all the nice comments. Jeff

The cue if perfect. 19.2oz with either shaft. Beautifully balanced. One of the things a bit different with this cue is the longer main points. And the ivory is gorgeously grained and just beautiful. A nice compliment to the amboyna.

I personally really like the soft crisp hit of a piloted ivory joint. So now I have two amboyna burl, full ivory cues from Jeff. My favorite cues in my collection.

Thanks Jeff. With any luck, your main thread will be restored......
 
In case you missed it, this is Sherwin's other burl. i also made Sherwin a couple Hoppe cues 7 or 8 years ago hopefully he will show them. Jeff

Real nice cues, both of them. And piloted joints!
Love the way the trim rings light up in the butt sleeve.
