Hello All
I'm Scott Gracio of Gracio cues. Being new to AZ and reading this thread almost makes me afraid to show cues. This cue looks beautiful, the Monkey Pod is highly figured (no stains or coloring), preasure treated, and cored. The core and handle were turned from a 30" inch diamond wood dowel, no internal splices. I've used many types of wood that are considered unfavorable in cue building and this one piece design works great (different types of core wood work also). It seems like the more beautiful the wood the worse it plays the more work I have to do.
The Ivory in the butt was fun to install and I'm shocked this customer found it so quickly. There was no extra charge and the cost to me was minimal. I purchased 2 pounds of Ivory chips for $24.00. Larger pieces to build points, buttcaps, joints etc. are very expensive. Ivory shrinks and cracks, I'm picky when purchasing.
It's a beautiful cue that shoots amazing. I shoot with every cue before delivery. My cues play!!
Its nice to see my customer so happy.
