i like them. my main player is ebony w. elforyn/ivorine inlays and buttcap. i dress in black or dark when i'm playing too, because of chalk marks etc. so i guess i match the cue
They grew on me. I have been thinking of having a custom made for a few years now, at first I was thinking about a Titlist style cue but now I think I would have a Tuxedo cue made. Always been a fan of Ebony, I have 2 Ebony cues, one being my shooter.
