What to Ask For in a New Custom Pool Cue?

If you were having a custom cue made for "future investment" and for maximum "playability", what would be your top 5 priorities to incorporate into that cue?

Here are my 5 uneducated guesses.

• Name of the cue maker
• Type of inlays (e.g. ivory, etc.)
• Number of inlays
• Type of wrap, if any
• Type and number of rings, if any

   Here are my custom pool cue specs:

   • Solid Ivory joint
   • G-10 pin for feel
   • Mitered points
   • nice set of rings in all positions
   • Weight 19.25oz.
   • Balance 19" to 19 1/2" from butt

   I recently commissioned Pat Diveney to design me an ebony 3-section wrap-less cue with exactly these specs.

   I hope it will be ready for me in August. If you have never hit with a Diveney your missing out. Try one if you can. You'll love it.
