Signed Casino 6 Meucci cue w/ extension – SOLD

This is a Meucci Casino 6 cue. This one is signed by Bob and since he has sold the company I’m not sure if signatures are an option anymore. This came in the shop as a trade that had very little play. Both the butt and shaft are straight together and apart. We decided to topcoat refinish it due to the fact that you could feel the rings and some of the inlay. Included is a extension and JP’s. Cue is 100% nick and ding free. One like it will not be found in better condition.

Weight – 19.2oz
Shaft diameter – 12.5mm
