I have a vintage Adam cue that I purchased roughly 40 years ago. I let a friend use it during pool league, he missed, banged it down and broke the butt cap. It went in the trunk for years and then a garage closet for a few more. I took it out when I moved and to my surprise it was still straight as an arrow! I took it to SBE and Adam Cues was there he took it, put a new butt cap on it and sent it back to me.
It’s 57 3/4” long from bottom bumper to tip. It weighs around 19 ounces. I don’t have a scale to weigh it. The shaft is nick free and 12.6 mm. The butt has black and maple wood veneers with what I believe are Cocobolo centers. The “A” in the Allan Hopkins signature is missing a small portion, that is not a nick, it came from the factory that way. It’s lacquered over. There are nicks in the butt and forearm in the finish, I don’t think they go into the actual wood. I was gonna get it re-wrapped and refinished, but I thought it’d be best to keep it and its original condition.
I’m selling it for $225 with 25 of that going towards shipping. Thanks for looking and please let me know if I’m off base on the price. I don’t wanna rip anyone off, but I don’t wanna short myself either and I’m not sure what it should be.
