Description

• RARE BIRD! OMEGA DPK!
• Just in-to the inventory at Crossroad Cues!
• These hardy ever come up for sale!
• Omega DPK cues were masterfully made and represent the true lineage of DPK himself and his influence on the legendary OMEGA shop!
• Made as one of a kind 10 point design! Great Find!
• Forward balanced with a super solid and commanding hit! To put it plainly, “they just don’t make them like this anymore!”
• Standard 58″ Cue- All of the points and the “Slick Handle” are made from Ebony, the nose is Birdseye Maple along with the special floating diamond windows in the center……. 10 Birdseye diamonds in total that look awesome along with the points especially when you spin this beautiful cue on the table! Everything of course is laser straight and tight…..The OMEGA shop was known for their surgical quality precision in everything that came out of the iconic Chicago Cue Shop………
• These guys were notably master level machinists before they began cuemaking…. It shows in how sharp the work is and with the way the shafts attach to the pin perfectly……. Absolutely excellent workmanship all the way around………
• Butt weight- 16 oz- 3/8-14 Pin ( Perfect fit! )
• Everything rolls straight together and apart! Just the way it should be with world class craftsmanship!
• Two Maple shafts included, one shaft has a different insert but it fits perfectly. This may be an indication that one of the shafts at some point was replaced. It could also be that one of the shaft inserts was replaced, this is fairly common with older cues. Both shafts are still in really good condition, one has a slight lift in the center when rolled but the tip doesn’t come off the table. ( Both have IV. Ferrules. )
• #1: 29″ Maple shaft- 3.4 oz- 12.5 m ( Straight. )
• #2: 29″ Maple shaft- 3.4 oz- 12.5 m ( Taper Roll. )
• Matt Bender was recently contacted to verify this cue, he remembered it right away due to the unique design!
• He said that it was built in the OMEGA DPK shop between 1994-1995! He also said that this was the most points they had ever put in a cue up until that point, and that it was a one off design! Matt & Mike Bender worked in the shop together for years before Mike moved to
• Alaska and Matt went on to work with Joe Gold at the Cognoscenti Cues shop in Chicago!
• This is a really good looking cue in person with only some minor signs of play, nothing serious. The small marks are only on the butt cap, top of joint and shaft collars. Everything is very small and hard to notice, there are no dents or dings anywhere! Well kept overall especially for it’s age…. Super good hitting cue!!!!
• Needles to say, this is an awesome catch right here!
• These 90’s cues are some of the very best made and always fun to play with when the opportunity comes up…..Most of the collectors never let these go!
• ( You absolutely will not find one like it for the cash! )
