DOUG BEASLEY
FOUR POINT EBONY & MAPLE
WITH BLUE VENEERS
|
Here is another pretty cue from Doug Beasley that will make someone a great everyday player that has a very classy, traditional look.
|
It is a very traditional four point design, with a solid ebony butt, ebony points with bluish veneers, and a nicely figured hard-rock maple nose.
|
He builds it with a black phenolic butt cap, for both appearance and durability, and a matching black phenolic joint. As usual, he engraves his DB logo in the butt cap.
|
The nose is very nice quality maple. Doug takes a lot of pride in his wood supply and selection, and even a very basic wood like maple is better when it's from his stock ... nicely grained and figured.
|
He finishes it with a luscious black Bison leather wrap - one of my favorites.
|
|
He uses a nice thin silver ring just above the butt cap, another nice simple touch that adds more to the appearance of this cue.
|
The veneer selection is the icing on the cake with this stick - black, blue, silver, and again, blue. From a distance it gives an overall bluish effect, but when looking close, you see the meticulous veneer work and separation.
|
He adds a thin phenolic (or ebony?) ring just above the wrap, which gives a nice base for the points, and adds separation for the handle.
|
The points are all long, even and sharp.

|
Another look at the quality maple in the nose ...
|
And another thin silver ring at the joint.
|
He builds it with a flat-faced joint with a 3/8X10 pin. It comes with two 13mm shafts with Juma ferrules and Moori Brown layered tips. It weighs 19.2 ounces (15.6, 3.7, 3.7) and is 59 inches long. A great playing cue that is built for everyday use, from one of today's premier cue builders.
