I'm having a custom made southwest style inspired cue made with both Amboyna Butt Sleeve and Forearm, with 6 ivory points exactly like your southwest except I adding splice point nesting a Ivory Pearl Inlaid Diamond at the long point. The Ivory band at the bottom of this southwest inspired cue will have pearl inlaid. I wonder how much Laurie will charge me if I have SW make this cue?? In term of estetic, SW wouldn't be able to compare to my cue. I'm also sending an orginal SW pin to the maker to be install on this cue. Can't wait.. will post pics once it's ready. Beat that!!
