ARIEL CARMELI
FANCY EIGHT POINT EBONY
WITH SILVER DIAMONDS AND BLUE VENEERS
|
Here is another unusual design for Ariel. It's an all ebony cue with four points, striking blue and white veneers, blue and white veneered widows in the butt sleeve with a sprinkling of silver notched diamonds and dots throughout.
|
Ariel makes great playing cues that always look like they're made for serious business. They have a solid, firm hit with a great balance, and always play great. This one is no exception.
|
This is a stunning cue. He uses four veneers to achieve the striking blue color - white, light blue, royal blue and another white. Using these to frame the ebony points against the ebony nose creates a beautiful forearm.
|
He adds one of his most popular ring patterns - two silver rings with elforyn diamonds - and puts them at all locations - above the butt cap, below and above the wrap, at the joint and on the ring collars of the shafts.
|
He uses the same veneer colors in the butt sleeve, separating the ebony windows from the ebony sleeve. Again, it creates vibrant effect.
|
He adds a white elforyn butt cap, with his logo engraved, and a matching eforyn joint.
|
As always, nice long, sharp points.
| |
|
I love the way this entire pattern comes together.
|
He adds a nice Spanish bull leather wrap, in black of course, which is the perfect finish to this beautiful cue.
|
|
The silver work is excellent. It is all highly polished and with movement, shines brightly.
|
He engraves his AC logo in the butt cap. And finally, he builds it with a screw-through rubber bumper that accomodates Predator, and other generic extensions.
|
It is built with his usual 3/8X10 steel pin in a flat-faced joint. It is 58 inches long and weighs 19.2 ounces (15,6, 3.6, 3.6). This cue hits a ton.
|
It comes with two 13mm shafts of his premium maple, with melamine ferrules and Triangle tips.
This is not one of Ariel's usual builds. I can't guarantee it's one of a kind, but it may be. And you're not likely to find another one like it.
