Now THERE is a BEM merry widow I'd love to have!!!

Gorgeous cue. I've always liked those Tad cues. Wish I had picked that one up from Vinnie myself!!

Here is my Capone. Just picked it up, I think it's a looker! pics by Indyq thanks, Todd

 

[ATM]

A looker and a player. Very nice Capone. Have you played with it yet?

 

[sharpq]

ATM,
Took it out twice now, it has a stiff but solid hit. Just like i wanted w/ that wood to wood hit i like. Just trying to adjust back to regular shafts, as I have been playing w/ Predator shafts for a couple years

I guess these will fit Cornerman's description of an original Merry Widow having single wood for the butt & simple rings:

First two cues from the top (kiiroi wood & Purple Heart):

Closer look at the solid Purple Heart

my merry widow is:

this is a link to dick abbott's cue, not mine.
http://www.billiardcue.com/image.popup.php?section=1&image=1&ID=8


mine is identical- cuttyhunk linen wrap, probably original finish, a little pinging noise from one of the three bottom rings where the solder has broken loose. pawn shop find. cheap, cheap, cheap.
i almost feel guilty. i put a schon, joss, espirituinstead of the original(warped a bit over 30 or 40 years).
