I am now the proud owner of this cue , post 359 , long butt , long Tulipwood and Pear shaft , could have almost been a Mannock.I helped Jim to source the shaft and had a little input with the design , but what Jim has acheived is nothing short of FANTASTIC. As any one knows Pear is a difficult wood to use to create a " playable " cue , as it is often whippy and too soft to make the effort worthwhile.I have owned a Pear shafted Mannock, a Robin , 2x Cue Craft & a Pear Camkin and this cue sits alonside the best of these for " playability ". Thank you Jim .

a few more cues ongoing,.,purpleheart and flame maple,..amboyna burl,ebony and mahogany alternate splices and a ebony thats going to make a eureka,

[culraven]

You don't do things by halves do you Jim! Seems a shame to sacrifice that lovely ebony to add more splices, are all cues made that way?

[jim evans]

this is the ebony with 4 lower tulipwood splices as eureka,,
