Unknown Cue on Ebay

not sure

not sure , could it be an old adams or made to be a lookalike.
weight bolt looks to be adams
just my thought on this john107:anderson sc
 
Ebay cue 7 hours left

Just a thought,does that case hold 3 shafts and if so would they not worp if 2 shafts were kept togeather? Why are two of the tips the same and the third tip and shaft look different?They have a 3 day return policy if you are not happy with the cue.Is that enough time to verify it.Only 7 hours left for a finale bid, ANY GUESSES ON HOW HIGH THE FINALE BID GOES.>>>I'll guess 3800.What do you think out there?

The people who really know Balabushka's have not chimed in on this thread - the silence is deafening and (I suspect) no coincidence. :smile:

There could be some dice rolling going on here, but it also could be a Bushka with a modified joint.

Then again, "unknown cue" sounds better than "couldn't get it authenticated cue".

My logic still tells me it's a copy. It will be an interesting story. I certainly hope we hear it once the auction is over.

I still think this is the best guess. After consulting with people much more knowledgable than me about this. The consensus is that it was probably an unfinished Horn that Ingram finished. Ingram finished many of Horn's cues in the last 5 to 10 years that Horn was alive. My sources tell me it is definitely a Horn butt plate while the shafts definitely look like Ingram.

Balabushka styling,
BUT I thought the Bushka cues had shorter AND THICKER Butt sleeves
AND The brass inserts in the shafts look smooth inside...
Usually the threads start sooner , those inserts are smooth , like a quick-release joint"
I think maybe a Horn Cue
OR
A Jim Ingram, who makes His cues in the stylings of both Bushka And Szamboti'
