Cue 038 - Padauk lovers

[old school]

Beautiful , reminds me of the alternate main splices on an old Thurstons I own.Think I have seen a Non Pareil done the same as well.also Jim crafted me a cue with ebony and purpleheart alternate splices ,a work in progress but plays well.Thanks Jim. Jason I love seeing work like this,different but elegant.

Hi Dean1982
not sure if you know this site, but Jason lists his creations here (not updated yet with this 038 )

I believe that the numbers missing are custom orders and probably waiting for some stock to complete or something like that.
cheers

Yep thats about right, I have orders for all the numbers in between but in the main they have requested certain number of arrows etc so they have to wait until a shaft comes along that suits there needs. I dont mind this type of request as long as the customer understands that my incoming ash is very limited and so it will take time to find what they need.

There is also numbers 007 (Jim Evans), 008 (Hotpot), 027 (Old School) and 029 (a Friend) which have been reserved by friends who wanted that particular number and are waiting until I clear the backog and will then hopefully place an order to make them that cue.

Jason , what do you mean " hopefully place an order to make them that cue" ? I am 100% ordering a cue when you have cleared your backlog.LoL !!! I cant speak for Jim or Hotpot ,but for myself I will wait as long as it takes,anticipation is just as seductive as the reveal and I am more than sure that the wait will be worth it.

You know what, I stood over the bench looking the woods before I spliced it and couldnt make up my mind which way round to go. I thought that the Padauk might look a little lost on the sides and not much of the pattern would show so went for it on top.
I also considered splicing again with lower splices but the other way round so black on the front / back and red on the sides but thought it may look cheap and wasnt wortht the extra bother.
