Built from highly figured Quilted Maple, the forearm carries incredible depth and movement, with the wood almost appearing to ripple under changing light. The warm natural tones of the maple pair perfectly against the sharp contrast of the Gabon Ebony and Redheart point work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"370\" data-end=\"701\"\u003eThe cue features an impressive 10-point configuration using Gabon Ebony and Redheart, creating a very aggressive and eye-catching visual flow throughout the cue. The matching Redheart box work in the butt sleeve ties the entire design together beautifully, giving the cue a balanced and very cohesive appearance from top to bottom.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"703\" data-end=\"1042\"\u003eThe inlays are crafted from Redheart and Super Tusk, adding crisp contrast and subtle brightness throughout the design without overpowering the natural beauty of the woods. Combined with the black leather wrap and detailed ringwork, the cue carries a strong high-end custom cue presence while still maintaining a very player-oriented feel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1044\" data-end=\"1296\"\u003eAnd don’t forget, \u003cspan class=\"hover:entity-accent entity-underline inline cursor-pointer align-baseline\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"whitespace-normal\"\u003eMichael Durbin\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e remains one of the very few respected cue makers today who still builds cues entirely by hand without using CNC machinery — something many traditional cue collectors and players deeply appreciate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1298\" data-end=\"1497\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\"\u003eThis is the kind of cue that immediately stands out across the room, especially for collectors and players who appreciate traditional point work paired with rich exotic woods and bold color contrast.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003ca name=\"OLE_LINK1\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cb\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"margin-top: 0in;\" type=\"disc\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; tab-stops: list .5in;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bookmark: OLE_LINK1;\"\u003eCondition: New 2025\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; tab-stops: list .5in;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bookmark: OLE_LINK1;\"\u003eForearm: Quilted Maple\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; tab-stops: list .5in;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bookmark: OLE_LINK1;\"\u003eMaterials: Gabon Ebony, Red Heart, Super tusk\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; tab-stops: list .5in;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bookmark: OLE_LINK1;\"\u003eAccessories: Matching Joint Protectors\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; tab-stops: list .5in;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bookmark: OLE_LINK1;\"\u003eLength: 58inch, even split\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; tab-stops: list .5in;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bookmark: OLE_LINK1;\"\u003eButt Weight: 15.1oz\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; tab-stops: list .5in;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bookmark: OLE_LINK1;\"\u003eShaft Weight: 3.6oz\u0026amp;3.6oz\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; tab-stops: list .5in;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bookmark: OLE_LINK1;\"\u003eShaft Diameter: approx. 13mm\u0026amp;13mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; tab-stops: list .5in;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bookmark: OLE_LINK1;\"\u003eJoint: 3\/8x11\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; tab-stops: list .5in;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bookmark: OLE_LINK1;\"\u003eWrap: Leather Wrap\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; tab-stops: list .5in;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bookmark: OLE_LINK1;\"\u003eNotes: Directly from Mike's shop.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bookmark: OLE_LINK1;\"\u003e*Overnight or 2\u003csup\u003end\u003c\/sup\u003e Day Air insured shipping included within the lower 48 States only.\u003cspan style=\"mso-spacerun: yes;\"\u003e  \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cuellections","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44098533163096,"sku":null,"price":6000.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0692\/3983\/2664\/files\/F60A4819.jpg?v=1778655891","url":"https:\/\/cuellections.com\/products\/mike-durbin-8-ptr","provider":"Cuellections","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
