A lovely and unique Hunt & O'Byrne Blackplate made in the early 90s still stands in really great condition complete with the original Ray Reardon Classic Cue Case as featured in the old H&O brochure.
The cue was bought by the original owner direct from Hunt & O'Byrne around 1992 having seen their advert in Snooker Scene and was used once a month up until 15 years ago when his local club closed and has not been used since and will not be used again. So it sits with me to find it a new home which I will................slowly :snooker:
It has a classic Ash shaft with Macassar splices with four secondary splices of a deep red Indian rosewood, the cue was made as one piece with splicing to 17.2" and then jointed at 10" and with the original solid ash extension that was originally stained black but the owner found it sticky to use so stripped the finish.
Specs are:
58.15" long
9.9mm tip
30.3mm butt
17.5oz
