Wow, if this tad isn't a 1 of 1, it is at least an extreme rare collector's piece!
I always thought that Tad's Cues are all locking quite similar. He repeated so many times the same designs; his classic MOP diamonds and dots, his sharp points in combination to his white Irish linen with mostly green specs and the very long butt caps and of course not to forget, his speciality the ringworks! With these dots, rings, cubes and other geometric forms he liked to use. But he did that still in many variations and combinations! In their colour nuances, their contrasts, the places of the inlays and always remaining true to his own style!
That's why everybody can recognize a Tad Cue already from more than 25 feet's away!
But only till now! Since you show us this one! Mister Kohara left us here another big prove of his fantasy and remind us his capacity to make that fantasy in to something touchable and very good playable!
If this Tad Kohara isn't a 1 of 1, it must be for sure at least a very rare one! This Player is just an awesome beautiful collector's piece and it also represents a great moment in American Cue Makers History. Made of one of the all time greatest Hall of Fame Cue Makers!
My compliment to you Bill. That was a dam good choice! GLWS even if I think you won't need some at all!
