Before everyone gets back from SBE with their new toys, I figured I'd post a group shot of what's in my "collection." Nothing fancy here, just some good-hitting and well-played cues. Apologies for the bad photos; I'm keeping my day job.

Left to right:

1) Dufferin sneaky pete
2) Bob Frey sneaky pete
3) Sugartree sneaky pete
4) Andy Gilbert jump/break
5) MasonH sneaky pete
6) Sugartree 8-pointer
7) Woody Woodworth Titlist conversion
8) Hoppe Professional
9) Diamond/Gabriels wrapless
10) Brunswick one-piece (modern-day Brunswick)
11) Jerry Olivier plain jane

Thanks all. The Mason is a real nice pairing of woods: purpleheart spliced into macassar ebony. The purpleheart has more pop to it in person; kind of like the last photo of the buttsleeve. Plays really well like all Masons.

The 8-point Sugartree also has nicer wood grain than the photos show. The detail on that cue is incredible - all the points are sharp and perfect at the top and at the bottom where they meet the C-position ring. It's gorgeous and a really hard, great hitter to boot.

I got both of these from other AZers, not new. Not actively looking to sell but I do have one or two more cues in the works so might have to make some room.

If anyone's wondering, the Sugartree sneaky pete is in fact blue from chalk. I got that one from an AZer also and it's unfinished. Don't know why Eric chose to leave it unfinished. The downside is that the butt picks up chalk like a shaft would, but it has a wonderful hit so I don't mind.

It might have been ordered with just oil stain on it instead of glossy finish. I have a couple of sneakies like that. It feels really good in the hand although it's more likely to get dirty/blue like yours. But dirt/chalk should comes off very easily. You should contact Eric and see it's oil stained and put some more on it.

I play with wrapless cues and given choice I'd rather have oil stained cues as they feel better to me. Just a bit more maintenance though.

Very nice collection :thumbup:
