Show me some custom Tiger Maple Plain Janes...

[jdelcue]

I've always liked the look of a tiger maple plain jane with a white linen wrap with some specs on it (black, brown, veneer-matching color, etc.) with some nice rings at A,B,E and thinner rings (or maybe none or matching rings -- w/e) at C & D. I do prefer brown phenolic to black, but I'll take a look at anything...

Just looking to see what's out there right now. If I really like something, I may go ahead and pick it up. No particular price range, although I figure most of them ought to be $250-$450? Or somethin' like that...

- Non-production cues only.
- 12.85-13mm shaft(s) (no technology shafts).
- Ivory ferrules preferred but will consider without.
- Looking for a cue around the 19oz weight range.
- Most importantly, like a little more forward-balanced cue (around 19").


For an example of the style, here's a Coker that just sold on eBay:

Have Rick Howard make you one, sir.

I did!!! I should have it in two or three months.

He's got fantastic woods to choose from, you can have all the specs you desire, his turnaround time is pretty quick....and only 600 bucks, brand new from him.

Just a suggestion. When I put up my request for some maple plain janes, I had somebody steer me Rick's way....and I'm glad they did!!

Good luck on the search, boss.

I thought about it awhile back. Glad to hear you sent your business Rick's way -- he's a good guy who makes a great cue, I hear...

If I went the "custom to my specs" route, though, I'd just give Mr. Chris Nitti a call and talk to him about it. My thing is to see what's out there on the secondary market before I make such a motion...thassall.

Madden Cue

Joaquin, take a look at the Madden we have on our site here is a link MADDEN CUE The only thing is that it doesn't have a ivory ferrule. We could put one on with a moori tip for the cost of the material. Let us know what you think. $350.00 for the cue $30.00 for the ferrule & tip.
