This is my first time posting in AZBilliards.I have been a fan for a long time, but have never posted before. To all the guys in Northeast Ohio who shoot out of Fiddlesticks, what's up!!
I bought this cue after reading the following:
This is a rare, one-of-a-kind, Tim Scruggs original. I purchased this queue in 1987, back when Tim was still operating out of an old converted slaughterhouse in Lansdowne, MD. In 1995, Tim re-finished the queue for me, removing the old, yellowing, hand-rubbed lacquer, and restoring it's luster with an updated finish and new white/black fleck Irish linen wrap. The trunk is natural finish Birdseye maple with 4 points of Red and Blue inlaid veneer. The cue is 20 ounces, but the weight is removable/adjustable by removing the butt cap. It has a stainless steel joint with brass shaft insert(s). The cue comes with two shafts, custom joint protectors, and embroidered felt sleeve with the Tim Scruggs logo. It is in excellent condition. There is one very tiny ding in the butt, but other than that, there is no other damage whatsoever. No surface scratches or dulling. The cue still has a "like new" luster, and the shafts are perfectly smooth - no dents, dings, or rough spots. The ferrules are 100% clean. I've treated this cue like the treasure it is - a wonderful collectible from a true master of the craft.
The cue is just as was described. The pictures don't show the awesome way it plays. Although I just bought it, I would be willing to part with it for 2 stacks, OBO.
