My current pool cue...just got it back from Andy Travis after having alterations done..it originally was just a plain round Ebony butt Jim Black Cue...it now has 4 splices of Olivewood with a Ebony front splice...The shaft has 16 arrows all inline with a great natural dark patina to it, one of the best shafts I have ever seen and plays like a dream.
I'm really pleased to own it. It's a beautiful cue. If it plays as well as the others it will be at least one of my top four cues, and I have around fifteen, including a parris. The one piece Butters cues I have feel solid, are good strikers, and look great. I personally think they are underrated. They're the best value cues I have bought. They need a bit of finishing, but they also come at a length, diameter, and balance that leaves a bit of scope to modify to suit most players. They really are fabulous things.
My last James Butters cue, and now one of a set of four. I haven't played with it yet. They all 'feel' good, but this one is quite a work of art (in my view). I hope it works for me.
