What a Gina!! Beautiful!

Curious

Wonder why the shaft rings do not match the joint. I myself do not care for that look but hey then again I am pretty picky too.
 
I think it is similar to the Harvey Martin look with different colors. Too bad it is not possible to buy it from here.
 
i don't like that gina at all.... it only has the beauty rings at A and E. the shaft doesn't even look like it matches the cue without the ringwork at B. i think that model looks much better as seen in this picture:

Hmm i was thinking that without the deco ring below the joint looks nicer? It has that look on most zylr or martin cues.

I think my taste in cue seems to be changing as i grow older. I no longer find fancy looking cues attractive but rather distracting. plain cues with inner beauty are more impressive. I wonder is it just me? Oh by inner beauty i mean cues when i take a hit with it and my jaws drops in awe and wonder.

I prefer both, but playability is what impresses me the most... I have had a few cues that were knock-outs as far as inlay,pointwork, etc. but were duds' in terms of playability"

I wondered why a cue maker would build a nice cue and not put the trim rings on the cue in the right places. The cue on ebay looks out of balance to me, but the cue you have pictured looks great and it's all about the trim rings.
 
Hey Master Class,
You are welcome to visit my website (www.triplecrosscues.com). I think we have similar tastes in cues and you may enjoy seeing my versions. Everyone else can come too. There is room for all tastes.
