snookered, that is a sweet cue. if thats cocobolo, it seems more of a dark brown, and thats what i want. exactly what would you call that. as in medium, dark, reddish???? Blackheart, you make a BEAUTIFUL cue and thanks for the pics. i wish i wouldnt have ordered mine already. how much do you charge for a cue like that?. 5 point, 5 windows, 4 rings with coco in em, and a curly maple wrap? just out of curiosity...... joey
