I received this cue a couple of weeks ago and I planned on just sticking it in the collection because I have been wanting a Scruggs Sneaky for a LONG time but I have my eyes on a lathe and need to move this.
It come with 2 shafts, the smaller shaft is the original shaft and the 2nd shaft is a second shaft that was made later in the cues life. The new shaft is 12.5MM and weighs in at 4oz!! That is a dense and heavy shaft. The cue rolls straight together and apart with the smaller shaft. Everything rolls straight apart but on the second shaft when it is put together there is a weird wobble at the joint, the tip does not lift. I didnt notice this on the cue until the other day. I think the second shaft may not be a perfect fit but it sure feels like it. It may also need faced. I honestly do not think this should affect the value at all. I have already talked to Scott Gracio about taking a look at it and he is more than happy to. I GUARANTEE that everything is dead straight and not warped, I just think that there is a facing issue on the shaft.
The cue has also been freshly refinished by ratcues and the leather wrap is flawless.
