Josh Tredway upscale merry widow. Woods are Artic birch (not maple) and Tulipwood. Unique rings at all positions with overlapping colored diamonds. Segmented handle with same rings. Arctic birch is very chatoyant but pictures do not really pick it up. Joint is unique and is a custom milled 3/8x10 titanium compression fit joint. Super solid and gives the cue an awesome and unique feel and hit. Maybe my favorite feel of any cue. Only selling because it is too heavy for me and it should be someone's player

Specs
58" 29/29

Weight: Butt: 15oz Both shafts 4.1 oz Total 19.1oz

Butt is fitted for Predator quick release extension (extension not included)

Shafts: One used about 5 sessions, one unplayed. 12.3mm Shafts are not whippy and very solid.

Comes with matching joint protectors.

Will sell for what I paid Josh

REDUCED: $2000 plus actual shipping costs

Having a more upscale version of this cue made that will be at my preferred weight and use the titanium joint which is awesome.

Note: pretty lousy photos. Sun washed out the colors a bit

19.1 is too heavy? Interesting.

For me it is. Even my Tascarella with SS joint is 17.8oz. And even that seems heavy to me sometimes. The 1-2 ounce difference should not matter but I have played with cues at basically 17 oz for my whole life and just cannot get used to one heavier, even if 19.1 is the most common weight
 
I understand.

The cue sort of has an interesting history. It was supposed to just be a simple merry widow to test the titanium joint for a much fancier cue. Then Josh selected a super nice piece of birch and one day I designed those rings so it became a much bigger cue. The original simple Merry would have been in the 17.5oz range. The cue is fantastic and I love the titanium joint. I don't mind keeping it but its a super nice cue and I figure some one might want it.
 
It ought to sell. A lot of people can shoot with a 19.1 oz cue. Nice looking cue.
 
Thought this would have sold by now Johnny. Nice cue.

Yeah it's an awesome cue. It plays really well and is much prettier in person. I am OK with keeping it, but would make a great cue for someone have others coming including a newer version of this cue from Josh so would sell it for a reasonable offer.
