Just curious about this one. If you had the choice and had to pick between the two, which would you add to your collection. Whereby both cues cost exactly the same.

Too hard to decide for me :grin-square:
 
The Tascarella,,without a doubt. Have never played with one, never hit a ball with one,but will say , they have to be one of the best made cues ever,,along with Ballabushca and Szamboti . Have owned many Scruggs cues, they are great cues,,but I'm just saying the Tascarella is the one to own , between the 2

Wow just lost a $5 bet as I bet a buddy the first poster would say "Scruggs". :thumbup:
 
Third poster too. Agree with the first.. Tascarella without hesitation

Tough choice.....

I would think with all the $$$ you've got, just get one of each :grin-square:

I would probably go with the Tasc as well, unless you're wanting a Big Pin cue, then go with the TS.
Tims Ivory joint 3/8-10 and/or Radial pins are the shit.

Good Luck with what ever you decide.:thumbup:

You should have posted and said "Scruggs" then.

Damn didn't think about that. It's like one of those proposition pool shots that leaves you feeling like an arze because it was so simple right :thumbup:
 
Wow looks like Old Pete has some fans! I clearly thought Scruggs fans would dominate! :eek:

Buying a Scruggs is like buying a Cadilac ...you got good taste.

Buying a Tasc is like buying a Rolls Royce...you have excellent taste.

I guess that leaves a Task. :smile:

Tim Scruggs would be my choice, most of his cues are like playing with the hand of God.

Dude, I just love that line. May I have permission to use it? :D

Oh Boy, here we go as the Scruggs fans have caught up. I really think that by the time this thread dies, I bet it will end up near 50-50 split on decisions. Just too close here!
 
I'm not sure which way I would go...I just really wish it was a problem I was faced with as it would be the most glorious of difficult decisions.

Hold on a second. If you owned a cue that had point work that didn't even line up and a wrap that wasn't smooth (Tasc), what would you think? That's right, sold it. The Scruggs I own is sweet. All the point work, inlays, and wrap are perfect. Plus, the Scruggs feels and plays better FOR ME (reminds me of a BB).

I'll never own another Tasc. I wasn't impressed. Although, I have seen pictures of his work that looks great. So, go figure.

I don't believe a bit of your story about a Tacsarella cue you described and no one else should either... I've owned over twenty, held over 100 and owned and seen around 30 of Timmy's cues and Tmmy's workmanship isn't in the same league as The Pete's... Sorry no debate it's fact...
