What is your ultimate player's cue?

If you could have the ultimate player's cue (best hitting/playability) - what would it be? If the looks and cost were not an issue, what woods and materials would you use and who would make it? I know the "hit" of a cue is all personal preference but I'd just like to get some opinions on what people feel makes a great hitting cue.

My JW with a Predator shaft and a sniper tip. It's not a cue, it's an instrument.

My basic little Tad

I have a bunch of cues, but I always seem to go back to my old Tad cue. I think the Gina plays better but is pretty fancy.

The Tad plays good and doesnt have much flash.

This may sound like a wise arse answer but it's not meant to be.

A house cue with a pro tapered shaft, a good ferrule and tip.
 
I have it already have the Ultimate Player's Cues, in fact several of em from a couple of different Cuemakers. They all Play better than me, except when I am in the ZONE...Than they are played to my full potential. Skill IMO is more important than Tools...
 
I have a plain jane mexican bocote Jensen cue. I told Mike that I wanted a good playing/hitting cue. He said that bocote is the best. I agree with him. It also has ss joint, leather wrap, ivory ferrule, and a rock hard tip (his milk dud).

Not the best looking cue but feels nice.
