Unless name is important to you, the truth is they all build good cues. In the SP class you could get one from a guy in your own home town no one has ever heard of and have a great cue.

I just picked up a Frey sneaky. It's a great cue. It has a solid feel and a stiff hit. The balance feels just right to me. The finish is first rate. I can't tell you anything about the other maker but I do think Frey makes a first rate sneaky. In my humble opinion you can't go wrong but it all just comes down to personal preference. Good luck with whatever choice you make.
My vote would be for a Bob Frey, just picked up a 60" sneaky of his a few weeks ago, I have owned a ton of cues, just look at my itrader, and I can seriously say I am done. Don't want anything else, Frey is perfect. Only way I might change down the road is to try one of his fancier cues but I don't see that happening.
You probably can't go wrong with either. I have 2 Howard sneakies and they both play top notch. Rick's cues are very easy to play with IMO, very little adjustment needed I've found.
Frey's are very popular as you know. They are a bit pricey for me, so go knock that gkloop guy to drop his prices :smile:

I have Bob Frey sneaky. It immediately became my player. It just feels right to me. I've owned and played with some of the better production cues (Pechauer, Joss, Jacoby and Schon) and never felt so in tune with my cue. Everyone that hits with it smiles and they keep hitting balls. I have a few standing offers if I ever want to sell it.

sneakies
I had my best years playing with a Meucci sneaky made in the '80s, till it was stolen.
Replaced it with a Frey which I foolishly sold about seven years later because I was offered more than three times what I paid.
Other sneakies that I've enjoyed playing with include Huebler, Predator, Pechauer and OB...

I had a Frey sneaky, and own a Rick Howard titlist that I had converted by him. The Frey had a slightly softer hit IMO, but did play very well. The Howard I own, and the ones I've tried, are very solid and play perfect for my preference.
Rick has a fast turn around, priced cheaply for what you get, and plays as good or better then any other cue I've tried with a 3/8x11 pin.
