Comments
|
A truly classic style “Tuxedo Cue,” 60 inlays of ivory
and mother-of-pearl. This is a top-of-the-line cue, and its “sister cue”
can be seen in the Blue Book of Pool Cues, 3rd Edition, pg 54.
This cue has a fantastic crisp hit and is an elegant design with
impeccable execution; it is rare to find such high-end cues by Mike for
sale in the used cue market. Mike has been making cues for 35 years and
is still available for extra shafts.
