Wrap Choice

[tedkaufman]

I have a Southwest that I've had for 15 years. It needed a replacement wrap. I considered sending it back to Laurie, but kept hearing about elephant ear.

So I went to Mike Gulyassy and talked to him about it. He showed me some samples of elephant ear stock and he had a color that matched my cocobolo cue beautifully. With that, I went with the elephant ear and I am delighted with it. Mike did a precise job of fitting the wrap to the channel and formed it to the cue with nary a trace of a seam. I couldn't be happier. I highly recommend elephant ear and if you are looking for a cuemaker to do a great job with the wrap, you will certainly be happy with Mike's work--it's flawless.

I live in Thailand, i am not asking for suggestions whether or not i should have a wrap, rather what wrap would be better, i am inclined between elephant ear and cortland linen. Thanks:thumbup:

If your gonna cut er down then linen, especially because your in very humid conditions.

If You Must

If you must have a wrap, than consider leaving the elephant with his ears and consider white linen with tan speckles. I had a Schon with this combination and it look great. white will pick the white in your rings. tan speckles will pick up the beautiful maple...J.M.H.O>

Not on your list but I go for cork too. All my custom cues have had leather. Then I tried cork on a McDermott just to test. Just received a new Scruggs cue from Tim not too long ago and now I want it rewrapped with cork. Oh and cork looks best on maple pj's imo.

I'm a leave it wrapless guy too Monto but if you're set on one of those wrap choices and are planning on playing with that cue for a while, I'd go with the Cortland. That cue will look nice and traditional with that.
