A great looking cue. Love the colouration in the jarrah burr, looks fantastic.

Maple shaft 8.8mm, 58.5in, 17.5oz, 30mm
Ebony with Jarrah burr and single ebony splice, its a beauty!

Very nice Stu.....

May I ask why you went for Hickory shafts, as in do they have a better playing qualities than ash maple??

Cheers Jimmy

I had the pool cue for a while and have really enjoyed the feel of hickory as it is just a little denser than ash but sooo much smoother making it feel lovely on the bridge hand. So I fancied having a whirl with hickory in snooker spec.

Very nice Stu, you can't beat a bit of plain ebony action..... and the golden colour of those shafts looks stunning!!

Thanks, will do.

I like the no fuss look like on your cues. I ordered a Ye Olde Ashe replica with selected shaft and asked him to do his stuff to give the shaft that 'old' look.

They are work horses! That Ye Olde Ash will be a beautiful cue I am sure, Tony does source some fantastic ash and I believe he has a magical ageing solution that will produce a lovely aged look.

Thanks mate - He said four months to me too but it has taken five months so yours should be not too far from being done. It may be worth giving him a call for a progress check, I did this two weeks ago and it seemed to give him a little nudge along.

What have you ordered?

Did I sell you the pool cue stupree???

You certainly did Darren, its a lovely cue indeed and has been altered by Dave Coutts since. Both of these cues may be leaving me so if you know of anyone after a beautiful 8 ball cue let me know. Trades always welcome

Very nice Stupree. How long did you wait? I have a cue on order with Tony, he told me around 4 months and its approaching that now.

Nice to have a matching pair, but am I the only one who's underwhelmed with the finish on many of Tony's cues?
Maybe I'm just a fussy bugger, I sent my wooly away for the blackspin conversion which includes "ultra shine" treatment, a few months back, and yes it came back shiney but no more so than the finish Andy T gets from my refurbed old cues. It was also very sticky (fair enough with a 'wet' finish I suppose). Anyway, within a few sessions it looked exactly how it was before I sent it off.. no matter how much buffing I gave it. Not very ultra at all in my humble opinion.

Yh, I was pretty happy tbh. I had spoken to him quite at length throughout the duration of the auction to try and find more info out about it. In the end I told him that i would be willing to make an offer if it didn't sell as the original price was too much of a risk with those pictures and the probable work that was required. My offer probably only ended up being £35 less than yours as we did the transaction privately so he could avoid the fees. It was a win win situation for me.

Yes, I told him I would deal privately and cover his cost on PayPal too, but you acted faster then me, because it was 5am in Hong Kong, there I missed the chance to buy a black plate Hunt cue I ever dreamed of. Anyway let me know if you're willing to sell the cue when the time came, all the best mate.

Hi mate, I'm the one who willing to pay £100 more than your offer for the cue, but when the seller relisted it, I didn't know he accepted the offer so soon without noticed me. I did offer him in the first auction after you. Anyway good win on the sales, post more pictures after it is refinisned.
P.S I was surprised when the seller accepted your offer, it's really what I call a bargain, cheers.
