I have a guy at my local hall who has a Tim Scruggs from as he says 1982. What I wanted to know is first off I have never seen a TS with no points. It is birdseye maple in the forearm and butt and a irish linen wrap. The BEM is stained red, another thing I have never seen out of TS. The cue looks in excillent condition and rolls perfectly strait, it has the TS logo on the butt cap and appears by all my knoledge of cues to be authentic. Comes with 1 shaft.
