I have some pics somewhere of my old Paul Fanelli. I'll hunt 'em down and post them later tonight! It was featured in the Insdie Pool article on Paul. He truly is the master of butterflies. Beautiful, one of a kind cues that play great.
And Paul is one of the nicest guys in the biz.

Paul is a very nice guy and hes a perfectionist. He wont let anything short of perfect out of his shop. His family is very kind as well.
 
Here is a cue that almost was but, unfortunately for me, never came to be:

It would have been a stunner! :(

Tell me about it Zeek. I had the privelage of seeing that one in the works on several occassions when I was having work done on some of my cues. Ricky (Ironchef; that's his cue) is one lucky guy!

Couldn't say enough good things about Paul, he most definitely is a perfectionist and build some of the best cues out there today. His butterflies are truly second to none and his wood combinations are simple awesome!
