Butterfly

Hi Cue Fans!
It's been a while since I posted on AZ, but I've been inspired to share. I picked up my new beautiful Steve Klapp Custom Cue 2 months ago and it's the best cue I've ever played with!!
After admiring Steve's butterfly splice work for some time I was put into contact with him and really appreciated his honest and genuine manor. He became very excited at the thought of making a custom cue for me and that made me very enthusiastic about our new partnership.
After picking the design and the kind of woods I would like to use Steve completed my cue in about 3 months, which definitely impressed me. I wanted something with a classic look, not a lot of color, no inlays, just beautiful butterfly splices, inverted points and perfect craftsmanship. The result was more than I expected.
My boyfriend Brian and I specifically took a road trip to the Ultimate 10-ball Championships in Mississippi to pass through Charlotte, NC so we could pick it up. We hung out with Steve that night and went to the local pool rooms, I'm now proud to call him my friend as well as my sponsor!!
Below are pictures of the cue and me with it! The cue has stripped ebony as the centerpiece, the main butterfly points are gabon ebony, the veneers are alternating holly and ebony, and it's full spliced into a curly maple body. 3/8-10 pin, flat faced cue ball joint, the rings around joint and butt cap alternating ebony and cue ball.
This beautiful one of kind cue retails for $1,800 and working with Steve to make your cue is a great experience!
Best of all it hits like a dream! I've played with custom cues and predator cues regularly for 10 years and this bests them all!
To see more of Steve's work and get his contact info check out his website! If you order a cue you will love it!
