This is a remarkable example of some masterful craftsmanship from one of the best known “Florida Greats” of cue making! (Jam Up Player 100%) Rick originally built this beauty for a high end collector in California as a special custom order between 15- 20 years ago. We acquired it a couple years back and have held it in our private collection at Crossroad Cues. Just like all of Rick Howard’s babies, this cue looks and plays awesome! He is an extremely talented craftsman / Cue Maker that has played professional level pool. Needless to say, Rick knows first hand what a good hit is supposed to be like! He builds everything the old fashioned way without the use of any CNC machinery. We sent the cue to his shop in Florida to have it completely refinished and two new shafts with natural ferrules were added. It has only seen light play since and looks great!

The design is super cool looking in person. Six Ebony into Ebony Points with “Ghost Flame Veneers”. They appear to fade away into the cue. Six natural Diamonds inlayed into the Ebony butt sleeve.
