Here is Ryan's new BEM merrywidow. After spending some time playing with it I'll say I'm really proud of this cue. The hit & performance is incredible. The cue features a brass 3/8-10 pin, the new Juma ferrule material (hits VERY much like the old yellow Micarta) and an Everest tip. I'm proud too of the handle...first I must give credit where its due. As all you cue buffs know...when purpleheart is used as a handle (or forearm) the "hit" is something special, really top shelf. I love it but many players don't like the purple color. Well this cue's handle isn't ebony as it appears...its purpleheart. Like I said though, I must give credit to Eric Crisp as I used one of his suggestions and it worked wonderfully. :thumbup: Enjoy the pictures!
