A classic design by Ernie Gutierrez, this cue has six points up and six points down of highly figured tulipwood going into the birds eye maple nose and butt sleeve. Between the points are wedges of ivory topped with the traditional Gutierrez rainbow pattern (frequently copied by other cuemakers).

All points are outlined in ebony veneers and tipped with an ebony clover. There are three rings of alternating ivory and veneered wood checks (above and below the wrap, and above the ivory butt cap). It is accented with a smooth black leather wrap, and I think it is exquisitely matched with a saddle-tan Whitten case.

This classic cue comes with two shafts with ivory ferrules and has the original Gina joint protectors. It is numbered and registered with Ernie, having been made on special order in 1994. I have owned it since it was made and it is still in NEW condition. It is one of the most attractive and desirable combinations of woods used in this design, and for some reason, seldom seen.

| This cue is packed with "extras" that really added to the cost, and now, to the value. The ivory joint, butt cap, and black leather wrap are all "extra charge" items on Ernie's cues. It comes with the special "Ginacue" case by Dan Whitten.
PRICE: $4,330.00
