Let me confuse the issue a little more I just had Ernie Gutierrez make me a custom Ginacue (I just posted pictures here today) that is custom by all definitions. I went to his shop, told him the elements in his cues I was most fond of, the colors I prefered and we (he) designed the cue I posted. The rainbow inlays in the butt....opposed with impregnated color wood between are an element he has never put in a cue before. Custom, right?
Well, since I posted the pictures on AZ at least one person has asked for essentially the same cue without the inlay work on the shafts. Ernie never told me (or would I have expected) that he wouldn't make other subsequent cues like mine. Once he makes another for somone else, is mine no longer a custom cue and becomes a production cue?
Just fuel for the fire.....
