HOLY SH&T BALLS! Unbelievable set of cues. Both are amazing. But the Purpleheart cue just draws my eyes straight to it. It is such a knockout! Congrats!
Hey Junior,Those are straight up sexy!!!!!!! I doubt I will ever have enough money to buy any of his cues, but If I did, te only thing my personal taste would want is the joint rings to match the butt sleeve rings. Any idea why they are different?????
Hey Junior,
It was just personal preference about the rings..
More often then not on FANCY Szamboti cues the rings at the joint and rings in the butt are different. This is common on Gus and Barry cues. They just looked at a cue in 3 sections. As you would see a bushka ring would usually be different also. The most common time the rings would match would be, if they were the simple ivory dash rings. The SW style ABCD rings dont apply to every cuemakers pallet.
Best,
