bulletThis cue is pre-owned but in PRISTINE shape with no discernable dents or dings in either of the 2 shafts or in the butt of this cue.
bulletOnly one shaft has ever seen any real action on this cue (shaft #1), the other has only hit a few test balls.
bulletComments:
bulletSince the Exportation Ban on Brazilian Rosewood went into effect several years ago, excellent pieces of it are getting very hard to find, and when you can find it, the price is "through the roof". This cue has some of the most beautiful Brazilian Rosewood I have ever seen and Kenny has done a masterful job of using it for maximum impact. All of the Brazilian Rosewood on this cue came from the same piece of wood and combined with the beautifully cut points, the very colorful veneers, the gorgeous ring work, and of course the Elephant Ivory Hoppe ring...this cue will be the jewel in the crown of your collection. Of course it goes without saying that this cue plays great just like every other Kenny Murrell cue :-)
bulletAs you can see from the price below, "this cue ain't cheap", but it is a true 1 of 1 and is signed that way on the the butt sleeve.
bulletThis cue also comes with a Custom set of Brazilian Rosewood Joint Protectors...do you think I've said "Brazilian Rosewood" enough :-) ...with matching ring work on the butt protector made by Kenny shown in the pictures above.
