Hi everybody!
What I am looking for is NOT a fancy cue with ton of inlay, design, ivory, etc... BUT a very well balanced cue which produces a good and solid hit.
What I am looking for is a truly HUSTLER cue that maybe a sneaky pete, a plain or simple design cue...BUT good and special wood must be elaborately chosen, the weight distribution of the cue, the wood stiffness and the wood grain variation must be taken into account.
Preferred Cue specifics:
Weight: 18-19 oz
Balance point: 18-18.5 inches from butt end
Preferred wrap butt will also consider wrapless.

Above is my preferred cue specifics, but if anyone has any slightly different cue, please also contact me.
Again, what i am aiming is a very well balance cue which produces a good,stiff and solid stroke. It doesn't bother me if the cue is old, has several dents, or whatever...
I really appreciate any advice, suggestion and help.
Thanks for reading.

The Joss Sneaky fits your request. Very solid hit with the collar insert.

Have a look and let me know.

I am in Houston, TX.

Did anybody hear about California John McCue? He had a cue shop in famous pool hall The Rack, Detroit, MI
However, he passed away in 2008, Just wonder anyone here still got his custom cue.
Thanks,

Cue maker is Jim Lee. He may still have the curly maple cue w/leather wrap available.

Also, contact user: tommie1351 and ask about his new Unity cues. He may still have the cocobolo cue available and it is absolutely gorgeous!!

Bryan Fisher makes an excellent playing cue IMO and they are priced right up your alley. Look him up or see if anyone has one for sale. You won't be disappointed
 
Darrin Hill has a fullsplice for sale. I know its under $600. Use the search function and you will find it.

Happy hunting
 
Jensen sneaky/Hoppe

Here is my humble offering, A jensen Sneaky Pete that is pre90's era, 59", body is 16.2oz, 3/8 10 pin, shaft is 3.4 oz and 12.6mm. Shaft does have minor roll out where the tip never leaves the table but is considered "taper roll". Cue does have a nice hit and plays great. Make an offer if interested or send my your email address and I will FWD more pictures. As a side note, I will be getting in a verry nice 2000 Jensen Hoppe style Ebony into BEM with 4 pts/Veneers (black, yellow, orange, ebony) with leather wrap and 2 shafts (12.8mm/13mm) and Ivory Hoppe ring in the butt mid December time frame. I will be asking in the 7's for this one. I have pics as well if interested.

Thanks
Tom
