This is a cue that drove me batshit crazy back when I was testing and deciding against using Solarez finish. So much that I set the cue aside in my why does it hate me pile. No worries, friends! I’ve recovered from being batshit.

So much that I gave INTENT MOVES MATTER new brown phenolic collars, nickel rings and a new brass 3/8-10 pin (set in a purple heart plug). Sanded all that Solarez off and finished with a proper Character Cues gleam.

Now the cue is full of sunshine and happiness, but you know the backstory and see the dark clouds. You feel kinetic holding it. Dangerous. The core is hickory into hard maple, and having a bolt in the middle, this is a medium-heavy butt. 15.9 oz. Depending on the shaft you pair it with, you’ll be in the 19-20 oz. range.

Cue’s drilled and tapped to add another ounce on top of that if you want a hammer with your thunderbolt.

Material Used: Stabilized Beech, nickel rings, brown phenolic collars, brass pin, rubber bumper

What’s Neat? The grain peaks and lows are aligned across the cue as if the viewer is looking at a slice of a topographical map.

A word about shafts:

I build shafts out of ten species and carbon fiber. My advice is this: if you have a shaft you love to use, buy this butt to match that shaft. If you’ve heard of a famous shaft that you’d like to try, buy that shaft to match this butt.

However, if you’re into the art of it and want to have fun, try something new, and make your Character Cue fully badass, consider one of my ten species or carbon fiber with a like-wood decorative ring.
